In a commendable effort to foster community solidarity and support the well-being of workers, the Public Works Department of Sharjah participated in the “Barda wa Salama” campaign organised by the Sharjah Charity Association. This human initiative was held at the neighbourhood council of Muwaileh, aiming to alleviate the effects of heat stress on workers through the preparation and distribution of summer care packages.
Commitment to Community Welfare
Ibrahim Ali from the Public Relations Department articulated that this initiative embodies the department’s commitment to community welfare and its role in bolstering humanitarian efforts that enhance the quality of life. He emphasised the department’s ongoing collaboration with charitable organisations in the emirate, providing effective support that meets community needs and reflects the deep-rooted values of solidarity in Sharjah.
Promoting Social Solidarity in Summer
The initiative mirrors the emirate’s vision in promoting social solidarity, especially during the sweltering summer months when temperatures soar. Ali reassured that these efforts are aimed at ensuring a safe and stable summer environment for workers.
Year-Round Community Engagement
This participation is part of a broader series of community initiatives executed by the department throughout the year, reinforcing its humanitarian role and the significance of partnerships between governmental institutions and charitable entities in serving the community and supporting the most vulnerable populations.
