Family and Community Council: Umbrella unites community entities
In a phone call to the "Direct Line" program, broadcast on Sharjah Radio and Television, Her Highness Sheikha stated that the journey will continue whether carried out by us or others. It is recognized that the family serves as the nucleus of society. To reform the family, it is essential for society to be righteous. This requires beginning with the cleaning of the soil to remove impurities and elements that could harm crops, preparing it for planting. Subsequently, the focus shifts to planting 'seeds,' referring to our children, both sons and daughters, who represent the country's future. After planting, it is important to care for these plants, ensuring they are in a proper, clean environment free of obstacles. Continuous nurturing and monitoring of these seeds occur day after day, week after week, and year after year. August 7, 2025, marks 25 years of nurturing the planted seeds, and as a result, each seed has become an individual capable of planting new seeds in the future. Therefore, the work of this foundation continues and remains sustainable." 40 years of serving individuals and society Her Highness added, 'In response to the life changes that require a deeper focus on individual development and enhancing their role within family and societal frameworks, and after a comprehensive and integrated study of the aspirations of His Highness Sheikh Dr Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, we announce today, with God's blessing, the launch of a new government facility under the name of the Sharjah Family and Community Council.' Her Highness continued, 'Under this council, a coalition of government institutions is dedicated to supporting families and their members by fostering both intellectual and physical skills, as well as safeguarding them from influences that could harm their faith, culture, and national identity. This approach has been in place for the past 40 years, and we continue to invest in our people. It is a vision championed by His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah. Beginning with a single idea and the establishment of the Al Montazah Girls Club, we have made a positive impact in homes across our community, nurturing artists, creators, leaders, writers, media professionals, athletes, and many others. Our services go beyond just families; they extend to the entire community, fostering a more conscious society. Recognizing our interdependence, we have initiated the creation of an umbrella organization to enhance the collaboration and efforts of these institutions, uniting them under one entity— the Family and Community Council.' Investment projects in Sharjah Hospitality Services Group 'The Sharjah Family and Community Council oversees a new initiative we recently launched: the Sharjah Hospitality Services Group. This group will encompass prominent hospitality institutions, such as the Sharjah Ladies Club and the Al Jawaher Reception and Convention Centre. We have plans for future investment projects that will integrate into this group, marking an exciting addition to our existing institutions. Our accumulated experience positions us well to expand investments that cater to community needs. This initiative is designed to benefit the community directly, as a portion of the proceeds will support various humanitarian, developmental, and community initiatives. Our goal is to promote sustainable development and create a brighter, more prosperous future for all. Ultimately, we aim to place the Emirate of Sharjah on the global economic map, attracting suitable investments along the way,' Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi said. "Flexible" plans to suit a rapidly changing era Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed concluded her remarks by stating, "The sons and daughters of Sharjah represent our future and the enduring hope we strive for. We have faith in our youth's capability to propel development across all its facets, as we nurture conscientious and impactful leaders dedicated to serving the community. We live in an era of rapid change; therefore, our plans must remain flexible and adaptable for the greater good of society. Thankfully, we are now witnessing the fruits of our efforts over the past decades. With these gratifying results and the growth of our institutions, we continue to strive for more for Sharjah. These institutions have been established to endure, regardless of who leads them. This is my utmost wish for my sons and daughters. I extend my heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all the employees of these institutions for their unwavering dedication and sincerity in their work, consistently striving to provide the best for these esteemed institutions that serve the Emirate of Sharjah and the United Arab Emirates. I congratulate them on every step they take."
