The Sharjah Awqaf Department Launches the Charitable Son and Dignified Living Endowments

The Sharjah Awqaf Department has announced the launch of two new endowments: the Charitable Son Endowment and the Dignified Living Endowment. These initiatives aim to enhance the impact of charitable endowments in the community and meet the evolving needs of its members. This announcement is part of the ongoing efforts of the Sharjah Awqaf Department to achieve its strategic goals, which focus on developing endowment work and innovating new resources that expand the pool of beneficiaries from these noble projects. These initiatives prioritize improving quality of life and strengthening community ties through sustainable programs that benefit everyone.

The Charitable Son Endowment: Promoting Community Values

The Charitable Son Endowment is one of the key initiatives reflecting the educational aspect of charitable endowments. This endowment aims to support educational and developmental programs that help raise a generation of children who are virtuous and beneficial to their community. By focusing on the values of piety and discipline, this endowment contributes to enhancing family stability and community cohesion. Activities of the endowment include supporting struggling talented individuals and increasing the effectiveness of Quran memorization and prophetic tradition competitions, as well as equipping the children of inmates with essential educational and behavioral skills.

The Dignified Living Endowment: Preserving Human Dignity

The Dignified Living Endowment addresses the basic living needs of community members in a manner that preserves privacy and ensures human dignity. This endowment takes into account the financial and economic circumstances of beneficiaries, providing support through the payment of essential service bills and the provision of food supply cards. It also offers assistance in emergencies and crises through approved mechanisms, contributing to family stability and reducing the exacerbation of temporary financial crises.

Strategic Direction of the Awqaf Department

The Director General of the Awqaf Department, Taleb Al Marri, expressed the importance of these initiatives in expanding the fields of charitable endowments, stating: “The launch of these two endowments embodies the department’s direction towards creating innovative developmental initiatives that respond to community needs.” This direction reflects the role of endowment in investing in people and supporting family stability, contributing to sustainable developmental impact that enhances social solidarity.

The Sharjah Awqaf Department aims, through the Charitable Son Endowment and the Dignified Living Endowment, to create positive change through institutional methods that ensure the sustainability of these initiatives and effective contributions to community development.
