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
Palestine has been under oppression and they have lost their dignity alongside their territorial integrity, as such I saw it fit to set up this fund in order to help the Palestinian cause here in Zimbabwe. We have an organization called Shoulder to Shoulder with Palestine (SSWP) It's mandate is to raise awareness and be in Solidarity with the people of Palestine. We have been doing various programs that range from solidarity work, collaboration with other government agencies, junior parliamentarians, Council and Tertiary institutions amongst other things. This has seen us training more than 200 young people on peace and conflict resolution while at the same time raising awareness on the Palestinian Plight. Recently we have registered a football team called Palestine Football Club. The team played it's first game last week on the 4th of September 2022. It is in this that I as Henry and We, as SSWP are asking the Global Village to support the cause that we are handling and make sure it continues and bears fruits. Our aim is to continue raising awareness programs here in Zimbabwe and expand to other cities within Zimbabwe while collaborating with other member states on this noble cause. We would accept anything given either in kind or in cash to the account as follows : Account Name: Henry Ngara Bank Name: NMB Bank LIMITED Account: 0000231701419 Branch: NMB connect Harare, Zimbabwe
