About the Cause
Dubai Cares’ programs are designed to reduce, if not remove, the greatest obstacles that prevent children and young people in developing countries from attaining quality education. With each intervention, Dubai Cares evaluates the need for assistance across two key areas:
Access to Education which allows Dubai Cares to improve children’s health and learning environment, increase education enrollment and attainment, increase access to education, reduce absenteeism, increase gender parity and increase promotion rates.
Quality of Education which enables early learning, enhances educational attainment and school progression, improves literacy and numeracy skills among children, enables teachers to access teacher training resulting in better learning outcomes, reduce dropout rates and increase primary school attainment.
Dubai Cares is a long-term advocate of safeguarding children and young people’s right to education and is currently playing a global advocacy role in spreading the knowledge about the importance of providing education to the unprivileged children.
We also champion education through research - There is an overwhelming lack of evidence as to what works to promote children’s learning in crisis-affected contexts. Research plays a pivotal role in tackling this issue.
My Story
There once was a 9-year-old boy, Rylan, with a big heart and a box full of colorful beads. While other children played, he found joy in carefully choosing each bead, threading them together into beautiful bracelets, and imagining the smiles they might bring. For him, creating bracelets was more than a hobby—it was a way to share kindness with the world. This young boy believed deeply in helping people who were in need or less privileged. With every bracelet he made, he dreamed of providing support, hope, and care to those who needed it most. His mission was simple yet powerful: to turn small, handmade creations into meaningful help for charitable causes. Kindness guided everything he did. He believed that everyone, no matter their age, could make a difference. To him, building a better world starts with compassion, generosity, and people coming together to support one another. He invites everyone to be part of this journey—to be encouraged, to support his mission, and to believe that even the smallest acts of kindness can create a ripple of positive change. Together, with care and unity, we can help make the world a better place, one bracelet and one kind act at a time
