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
Do you know that feeling when you want to make the world a better place but don’t know how to start? We had this feeling too, a mix of motivation and uncertainty and we realized that many women and men in the UAE share the same desire to do good and make a difference. That’s how the idea for GivEvents was born. We wanted to create a space where people could contribute to a meaningful cause while enjoying themselves, staying active, and meeting others who share the same positive energy. Instead of just donating money online, why not join an activity that inspires you, like yoga by the beach, group hikes, art sessions, or reading nights, and know that 100% of your participation fee goes directly to Dubai Cares? It’s simple: we bring people together through fun, healthy, and mindful experiences that empower our community to give back. Every event is a step toward change. For children, for education, and for a more connected and compassionate world. GivEvents isn’t just about doing good. It’s about feeling good while making a difference. Join us and be part of a movement that believes giving can be joyful.
