About the Cause

My Story

When I first arrived in Dubai, I was full of hope and excitement for a new beginning. I had dreams of building a better life and finding a job, but things didn’t go as planned. After spending my savings searching for work, I found myself running out of money and options. With no income and no place to stay, I became homeless for 10 days. During this time, I had nothing—no food, no job, and no idea where to turn. Those 10 days were some of the toughest in my life. I had to survive by relying on the kindness of strangers and the very few resources I could find. It felt like there was no way out. For a long time, I struggled to find stability, and the challenges seemed endless. It wasn’t just about physical hardship—it was also an emotional battle. I felt lost, scared, and hopeless, but somehow, I kept going. Now, after a year of struggle, Alhamdulillah, things are starting to get better. I’ve found a job and a stable place to stay. But the journey is far from over. I know there are many people in Dubai who are facing the same struggles I went through—people who are homeless, with no food, no job, and no support. They’re stuck in a cycle of despair, just as I was. This is why I want to help. I’ve been there, and I understand the pain and desperation. These people need our help and support to regain their dignity and rebuild their lives, just like I was able to. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a huge difference in their journey to find stability and hope.
