Hand in Hand: Embracing the Year of Community
11 February 2025
In a momentous announcement, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, has declared 2025 as the "Year of Community," with the unifying slogan "Hand in Hand." This national initiative reflects the leadership's dedication to creating a united and empowered community, reinforcing family and social connections, and preserving cultural heritage. It also aims to unlock the potential of individuals, families, and organisations by developing skills, nurturing talents, and encouraging innovation.
As a global hub, the UAE has long been a place where people from all corners of the world come together to form a vibrant and diverse community, they proudly call home. This declaration deeply resonates with Al Masaood's own mission. Founded in Abu Dhabi with the purpose of serving the community, the core values of unity, togetherness, and empowerment continue to guide us today. Investing in our people remains central to our mission, as we believe our people are our greatest asset.
This declaration also serves as a powerful reminder for us all to actively contribute to our communities. Whether through simple acts of kindness, volunteering, or larger collaborative efforts, every contribution, no matter how small, plays a significant role in strengthening the bonds that unite us.
