About the Cause

Dubai Cares is a UAE‑based global philanthropic organization working to provide children and youth in developing countries with access to quality education.

Feed A Child, Build A Kitchen is Dubai Cares’ Ramadan fundraising campaign that supports school meals through community kitchens, helping children learn, creating dignified livelihoods, and strengthening local food systems in a sustainable way.

Kicking off in Kenya’s Embu County, where classroom hunger remains a major barrier to education, each community kitchen will provide 76,000 nutritious meals annually to 400 early learners across 21 rural schools, helping children arrive at school ready to learn. Beyond nutrition, each kitchen will create approximately 164 local jobs, mostly for women, support local farmers through local sourcing, reduce environmental impact through clean energy solutions, and offer a scalable model for strengthening education systems and communities across Sub‑Saharan Africa.
