Sharjah Family Development Foundation Celebrates 25 Years of Strengthening Family Bonds
As the Sharjah Family Development Foundation marks its 25th anniversary, Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi has issued a heartfelt call to prioritize compassion, mutual respect, and shared responsibility within the home. Speaking at the silver jubilee celebration, the Chairperson of the Sharjah Family & Community Council emphasized that a stable society begins with secure, supportive family units. She encouraged parents to remain deeply involved in their children's lives, noting that as global influences evolve, the family must serve as the primary source of guidance and protection to ensure the next generation remains grounded in their values and proud of their Emirati identity.
Over the past two decades, the foundation has become a cornerstone of social development in Sharjah, impacting the lives of tens of thousands through counseling, educational programs, and policy advocacy. From supporting newly married couples to launching initiatives like the Family Cohesion Charter, the organization has consistently worked to translate the vision of Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi into tangible improvements for community wellbeing. As the foundation looks toward the future, it remains dedicated to fostering resilient, happy households that are equipped to navigate modern life with confidence and dignity.
