Sajaya Young Ladies
Sajaya Young Ladies of Sharjah is a non-profit organisation based out of the third largest emirate in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
It was established as a pioneering organisation to develop the talents of Emirati girls aged between13-18 under the aegis of the Supreme Council of Family Affairs – an umbrella organisation in Sharjah dedicated to the provision of high quality services and a safe working atmosphere in the emirate.
Originally established under the name of Children Centres in 2004, Sajaya Young Ladies declared its independence in 2012 to focus on young ladies based on the vision of Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi, Chairperson of the Supreme Council of Family Affairs (SCFA), and wife of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Member of the UAE’s Federal Supreme Council, and Ruler of Sharjah.
In 2014, Sajaya Young Ladies was relaunched as a new identity with a deeper mission and vision.[1]
