Sharjah 24: The Zakat Project of the Sharjah Social Empowerment Foundation (SSEF) witnessed remarkable community engagement during its Ramadan "Zakki" campaign. Many individuals, including orphan sponsors and benefactors, actively contributed to the campaign, reflecting a strong spirit of social solidarity and collective responsibility.

Comprehensive Support for Families in Need

This initiative is part of the foundation’s ongoing efforts to provide comprehensive care and real empowerment to families eligible for zakat. The project collects zakat contributions from community members and directs them to those in need, helping to cover their living expenses and fund projects that promote their long-term self-sufficiency. By ensuring financial stability, the campaign contributes to securing a dignified life and a more stable future for these families.

A Testament to Generosity and Social Responsibility

Mona Bin Hadda Al Suwaidi, Director-General of the Foundation, emphasised that the success of this year’s Zakat Project reflects the spirit of generosity, solidarity, and social responsibility within the community. She highlighted the strong commitment of individual contributors, particularly sponsors who dedicated their zakat to support orphans under the foundation’s care.

Personalised Contributions to Meet Diverse Needs

Al Suwaidi noted that many sponsors took a personalised approach by allocating their zakat contributions to specific needs. Some directed funds towards covering the living expenses of orphaned children during Ramadan, while others used their donations to provide Eid gifts and celebrations. Several sponsors even reached out to the foundation directly to inquire about the specific needs of the orphans and their families, ensuring that their contributions made a meaningful impact.

A Heartwarming Act of Kindness

In a touching example of generosity, one sponsor donated AED 50,000 to support her sponsored orphan, demonstrating her ongoing commitment to ensuring a dignified life for the child. This substantial contribution will directly improve the orphan’s living conditions and provide essential support to her and her family.

Strengthening Social Bonds and Empowering Families

Al Suwaidi stressed that community involvement in the project plays a vital role in enhancing the financial stability of beneficiary families, empowering them to build a secure and confident future. She expressed deep gratitude to all who contributed to this noble cause, emphasising the importance of continuing these humanitarian efforts.

Encouraging Continued Support for a Brighter Future

"We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported this blessed initiative. We look forward to continuing our collective humanitarian work by upholding social values and strengthening the bonds of compassion and unity, as encouraged by our faith. This generosity fosters a sense of togetherness and mutual support across all segments of society. We truly appreciate every effort made towards this noble cause and encourage the community to sustain their support, ensuring a brighter future for those in need," she said.

A Key Project for Sustainable Empowerment

The Zakat Project remains one of the foundation’s most vital initiatives, playing a fundamental role in the empowerment of its beneficiaries. By channeling zakat funds directly to families based on strict eligibility criteria, the project ensures that financial aid reaches those who need it most, contributing to their long-term stability and well-being.
