Sharjah launches humanitarian initiative to serve daily meals to over 45,000 people in Gaza
The funds will go toward drilling 12 wells to supply clean water and operating 12 charitable kitchens and 20 ovens to serve daily meals to over 45,000 people in the Gaza Strip.
This initiative is part of the UAE's wider "Chivalrous Knight 3" campaign, launched by President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to support the people of Gaza and alleviate their suffering.
Mohammed Rashid bin Bayat, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Sharjah Charity International, stated that the initiative seeks to allocate Dhs 1.2 million for water well drilling to serve over 312,000 residents, and allocate Dhs 1.4 million to operate kitchens providing hot meals daily to families in need.
He emphasised that access to water and food are fundamental human needs, especially in the challenging circumstances currently faced by the people of Gaza.
Bin Bayat highlighted that drilling wells is a sustainable solution to Gaza's water shortage and will help stabilise health and environmental conditions. Meanwhile, operating charity kitchens will offer daily, balanced meals to vulnerable groups, including children, the elderly, and the sick.
To encourage participation, the association has made donations accessible through the Smart Link on the official website, payment platforms including Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and credit cards, as well as text messaging, bank transfers, and cash donations at official locations, mosques, and commercial outlets.
The Vice Chairman reiterated that the association adheres to a transparent and integrated operational system, ensuring that donations reach the intended beneficiaries efficiently. He noted that the initiative is part of a broader effort by the UAE to fulfil its humanitarian mission, strengthen brotherly ties, and offer vital support where it is most urgently needed.

ADVERTISEMENT The partnership reached a defining moment with the flawlessly executed Supercharged 2025 event on June 25 at ADNEC, Abu Dhabi, where G42 convened its global ecosystem to explore the most urgent questions and boldest possibilities of the AI-enabled world. Elevating a Global AI Leader's Brand on the World Stage As artificial intelligence reshapes the global economy and society, G42 has emerged as a defining force in responsible AI development. The company's inclusion in the TIME100 Most Influential Companies list recognizes its pivotal role in advancing AI infrastructure globally, including the groundbreaking US-UAE AI Campus—a 5-gigawatt facility spanning 10 square miles in Abu Dhabi, unveiled in the presence of UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and US President Donald Trump. Shantanu Pandey, Founder and CEO of Tenet, reflected on the partnership's significance: 'Working with a TIME100 company that's literally building the future of AI infrastructure is both a privilege and a responsibility. G42's vision to power responsible, inclusive AI for humanity required a comprehensive visual language and brand experience that could match the scale of their ambitions. From the smallest digital asset to the grand environmental design of Supercharged, every element needed to reinforce their position as a global AI leader.' From Strategic Vision to Spectacular Execution Tenet was entrusted with executing G42's comprehensive brand rollout across every conceivable touchpoint. This ongoing initiative encompasses: Complete visual identity implementation across physical and digital environments Digital asset creation for internal and external communications Environmental design and sophisticated wayfinding systems Event visual ecosystem design for Supercharged 2025 Brand design elements spanning from corporate communications to experiential touchpoints The Supercharged event served as the perfect platform to showcase G42's most significant achievements, including their partnerships with OpenAI, Oracle, NVIDIA, SoftBank Group, and Cisco for the Stargate UAE project – a next-generation AI infrastructure cluster that will provide best-in-class infrastructure and nation-scale compute capabilities. Where Visionary Content Meets Flawless Visual Execution Supercharged 2025 wasn't just another tech conference – it was a demonstration of how strategic design thinking can amplify the most important conversations of our time. The event featured: Virtual keynote by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on the future of artificial intelligence and global collaboration High-level participation from technology leaders including Microsoft's Vice President Immersive showcases from G42's portfolio companies spanning molecular biology to space exploration Panels exploring critical domains including energy transitions, healthcare breakthroughs, sovereign cloud infrastructure, AI governance, and digital trust Introduction of G42's 'Intelligence Grid' concept powering responsible AI development Every visual element – from immersive wall designs to sophisticated stage backdrops – worked in harmony to create an environment where groundbreaking ideas could unfold naturally. The production quality was stunning, but more importantly, it was purposeful, reinforcing G42's commitment to building a better future through artificial intelligence. 'What made Supercharged extraordinary wasn't just the scale of announcements or the caliber of speakers—it was the collaborative spirit that permeated every aspect,' added Shantanu Pandey. 'The visual design worked seamlessly with the content, the technology served the message, and every detail reinforced G42's commitment to inventing a better everyday through AI.'
