Sharjah24: Adel Al Awadhi, Head of the Human Resources Department at Sharjah City for Humanitarian Services (SCHS), stated that the "Your Zakat for Our Education" campaign has been organised annually during Ramadan since 1989.

Funding Educational Needs

Al Awadhi announced that the campaign aims to raise AED 12 million to cover tuition fees for 492 students eligible for Zakat, following Islamic guidelines. A specialised committee carefully assesses the economic and social conditions of students to determine eligibility.

Cost of Education

He explained to “Sharjah24” that while the average tuition fee per student is AED 30,000, actual costs can reach up to AED 80,000, depending on the type of disability and the required services. He also expressed gratitude to contributors, supporters, and sponsors of this year’s Zakat campaign.

Encouraging Donations

Al Awadhi urged the public to contribute to the "Your Zakat for Our Education" campaign through Sharjah City for Humanitarian Services' accounts at Sharjah Islamic Bank, Dubai Islamic Bank, and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, via SMS donations, or by visiting the organisation’s branches in Al Barashi and Al Yarmouk.
