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
In recognition of World Mental Health Day on October 10th, Safa British School is proud to announce its upcoming Charity Fitness Challenge — a vibrant event designed to unite our community in support of both physical and mental wellbeing. The day will serve as a powerful reminder that movement and mindfulness go hand in hand, and that by looking after our bodies, we nurture our minds too. Teachers across the school have been preparing enthusiastically, planning creative ways to get students involved — from fun fitness circuits and team challenges to mindful movement sessions that promote relaxation and focus. The aim is not just to raise money for an important mental health charity, but to inspire a deeper awareness of the positive impact that regular exercise has on our mental state, resilience, and overall happiness. Students and staff alike will have the chance to take part, pushing themselves to reach new fitness goals while learning that looking after their wellbeing doesn’t always mean slowing down — sometimes it means moving with purpose. Whether it’s through running laps, taking part in group activities, or simply cheering on their peers, every participant will be contributing to a shared cause: raising awareness, breaking stigma, and strengthening the message that mental health matters. Beyond the event itself, the Charity Fitness Challenge reflects the values at the heart of the SBS community — compassion, teamwork, and commitment to holistic development. By conn
