SCORP’s recent outing to the Pyramids was more than just a trip—it was an experience that connected us to Egypt’s rich history and the values of peace, justice, and equality that the Pharaohs upheld.
Through exploring these ancient wonders, participants reflected on SCORP’s mission of human rights and social justice, drawing inspiration from a civilization that valued people for their contributions. The day was filled with learning, bonding, and unforgettable memories, reinforcing our commitment to carrying these values into the future.

This year, we proudly organized the sixth edition of the HMSA Annual Iftar, and it was truly special.
It brought together a unique mix of beautiful vibes: the spiritual atmosphere of Ramadan, the warmth of breaking fast together, the joy of friendships, and that unforgettable HMSA energy that always gathers us around goodness.It wasn’t just a meal; it was a collection of moments and memories that we’ll carry with us. From the pre-Iftar preparations to every small detail during the evening, the effort that went into this event was massive. Every person who worked on this Iftar gave it their all, and it clearly showed. Led by our amazing FSDD, Hamed, and organized by the Fundraising Division, the event came to life through the dedication of our incredible OCs, who made sure everything ran as smoothly as it did. Their eye for detail and commitment behind the scenes truly shaped the experience. We are proud of what we’ve achieved, and we know this is neither the first nor the last. HMSA Iftar will always be one of the most special annual events we hold, and we truly hope it continues for years to come. Thank you to everyone who helped make this evening what it was, and thank you to everyone who joined us and made it even brighter. Until next year, insha’Allah!

The RSD Ramadan series presented an enlightening and myth-busting exploration of the effect of Ramadan fasting across various aspects of life, including mental, physical, and reproductive health through collaboration videos with SCOPH and SCORA. Contrary to popular beliefs, fasting during Ramadan does not dull the mind, weaken the body or reduce cognitive performance.In fact, many research papers were presented that highlights the improvements in mental clarity, metabolic health, and even hormonal balance in many individuals. Each episode delved into a different dimension, combining scientific explanations, and research experiments to empower the viewers with accurate information, dispelling myths and promoting a more informed and balanced understanding of Ramadan fasting.
