Her Highness Shaikha Jameela Bint Mohammed Al Qasimmi, General Director of SCHS, is very proud of the achievements of SCHS in the last year. SCHS participated in the establishment of the Arabian Network for Autism located in Lebanon and the Arabian International Union for Developing Skills via Entertainment located in Egypt. SCHS was not affected by the recent global financial crisis. On the contrary, it has been committed to its financial obligations towards its workers. In addition, none of its programs were stopped because of the crisis. Furthermore, SCHS is committed to its obligations in the Arab world. It has been supporting less fortunate institutions in Arab countries such as Palestine, Lebanon, and Yemen. SCHS is planning to establish a joint trust fund with the Yemeni government in order to support people with special needs.
