Sheikha Al-Thani

From the moment Sheikha Al-Thani was born. She brought together different backgrounds and that characteristic has been As a teenager, Sheikha combines the natural responsibilities that her age entails, such as ensuring the best performance with her charity work. Even before she even knew what she would want to be when she grew up, Sheikha had a clear goal in her mind: she wanted to help other children to develop all their potentialities. In the beginning, she had to overcome important barriers, not only based on her young age, but also on her own background, but her real determination ended up persuading everybody around her that this was an objective for life. The little girl used to distribute foodstuffs on the needy as well as the underprivileged children. She cared not for hot or cold weather, as putting a smile on their little faces made her really happy. Year after year, Sheikha visited many villages in Egypt searching for smiles of children as she gives them new clothes or candy. She became so happy to hear old women invoking divine care for her for what she did. Sheikha refused to abandon such work as some people argued she was still a child to do so. Yet, her love and goodness encouraged her to stick to her humanitarian work. Sheikha chose her way and decided to establish a charitable foundation bearing her name. She was aiming no longer to give money or gifts away, but rather to help the needy, especially children. The underprivileged children became her very target. Those who need health care or education drew her attention. She named her foundation SATUC and decided to open a branch for SATUC in Egypt in order to continue supporting underprivileged children and the poor in the Arab world and Europe.
