This cooperation is central to realizing the nation's vision of social responsibility relating to sustainable and health-oriented social development, in light of the efforts made in the fields of healthcare and humanitarian care for people of determination.
As mentioned by HE Khadija Darwish Alqubaisi her feelings during that moment was unbearable in regards of collaborating and signing a memorandum alongside a major institution such as Zayed's Higher Organization for people of determination that holds a name of our late leader that always clarified humanity in between individuals that up until today it still holds a powerful meaning in our hearts whether you were based in the UAE or not, his values of humanity and justice lives up until today.
Added by HE Khadija Darwish alqubaisi: anything that starts from scratch should face major circumstances but the simplest is introducing the idea to the community, and we're not bragging about being the greatest out there, but we started based on goals written down to get accomplished and we're staying up all night, working all day only to make sure that those goals get accomplished as soon as possible as being a non-profitable institution only here to serve targeted individuals.
Once those targeted individuals are targeted, they become affiliates to the institution that only got established to serve them, but that process isn't as easy as it sounds, gaining their trust was hard but thankfully we've approached that level.
Continued by Her Excellency: the idea of HCFR came out of a family some it's members were diagnosed with an un-curable disease scientifically called Retinopathy and it's a gene held by past family members, Humaid (may he rest in peace) came up with the idea of the institution but once he passed away and reached out to the mercy of god we held his (vision) to HE Hessa Eissa BuHumaid the minister of community development, and since she's a kind hearted minister (as we love to label her here at HCFR( and after she had a look at the database and planes, we were declared and we straight ahead worked on our plans and goals.
