About Us
Our Vision and Mission
Our vision is to build youth who can challenge themselves to recognise and embrace their potential.
Our mission is to recognise youth for their ability to overcome challenges.
Our Ethos
The focus of the Sheikh Sultan Award (SSA) is on participants’ personal growth through category activities. The award is designed to complement academic accomplishments with practical and real-life experiences that help personal and social development.
The purpose of the award is to engage participants in experiences that that will make a significant difference to their lives, the lives of others, or the environment.
The Sheikh Sultan Award aims to build self-esteem, self-confidence and autonomy. For many participants, their award experiences are profound, life-changing and, most of all, fun.
Our Values
Resiliance
At the heart of the Sheikh Sultan Award is the belief that growth comes from perseverance. Resilience is demonstrated when participants step outside their comfort zones – whether through an adventure in nature, sustained fitness efforts, or overcoming obstacles in the volunteering or skills categories. We value the courage to keep going when things get hard, the strength to learn from failure, and the mindset that each setback is a setup for personal growth.
The Sheikh Sultan Award celebrates and encourages the determination that helps build lasting self-confidence and achievement in its participants.
