The establishment of Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Charitable and Humanitarian Foundation came to crown the successful journey of the United Arab Emirates in all aspects, and to represent another episode of the good deeds instilled in the Emirati people by the late Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, former President of the U.A.E. based on the principles of our Islamic faith and Arab traditions.

Announcement of the establishment on 5 August 1992 came to translate the wisdom, vision and willingness of His Highness to develop mechanisms of charities in this country, and raise them to world class levels, and to ensure Sheikh Zayed''s willingness to help the needy people around the globe, using state of the art systems.

Since its establishment, the foundation has focused on diversification of its activities in association with national and international organizations, to promote the United Arab Emirates in the charity and humanitarian field around the globe.

From the beginning, the Foundation made many accomplishments which made it a charity and humanitarian beacon for the whole world. This drives us to move forward and look at working on boosting these accomplishments under the wise direction of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the U.A.E. and support of H.H. General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed forces, and the daily follow up and support of Sheikh Ahmed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation.

Our Vision
"We believe that the grace of wealth bestowed upon us by Allah, must be spread to envelop our friends and brethren around the world."

Our Message
"The human being is the core of any civilization… Thus it is necessary to focus on people because they are the center of gravity for any real and sustainable progress. No matter how many buildings, installations, schools and hospitals we build… No matter how many bridges and monuments we construct… They all remain solid matter that has no soul and can not be sustainable. Humanity makes up the true spirit of everything, whose members are able with their arts and skills to maintain and upgrade these constructions and grow alongside with them".
