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
My 8-year-old son is a bright and passionate child who loves learning. Unfortunately, he couldn’t enroll in school this year due to our financial struggles. His father is currently unemployed, and we lack the resources to pay for his school fees. He is our only child, and like any child his age, he dreams of a bright future and wants to be like his peers who are continuing their education. It breaks his heart to watch his friends go to school while he is left behind. I am starting this campaign because education is a basic right for every child, and I dream of seeing my son back in school, pursuing his aspirations. Our goal is to raise enough funds to cover his school fees and support him in continuing his educational journey. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a huge difference in my son's life and future. Thank you for your kindness and support during this difficult time
