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
Our family is experiencing severe financial hardship due to the impact of a legal case filed by my ex-wife in the Dubai Courts. As a result of the current execution order, 25% of my monthly salary is deducted and transferred to her. While I fully respect the court's decisions and continue to fulfill my legal obligations, this deduction has placed my current family in significant financial distress. My monthly salary is AED 8,080, which is the sole source of income for my household. I live with my first wife and our two school-going children, who depend entirely on my earnings. After the salary deduction, the remaining income is insufficient to cover essential expenses such as rent, food, utilities, transportation, and school fees. The greatest impact has been on my children's education. Due to our financial situation, they have been forced to stop attending school because we can no longer afford their fees. This has been emotionally devastating for our family, as their education and future are being affected by circumstances beyond their control. We have exhausted our savings, accumulated debts, and continue to struggle to meet basic living expenses each month. Despite these hardships, I remain committed to fulfilling my legal responsibilities. I respectfully request that our circumstances be considered with compassion and fairness, as the financial burden is now directly affecting the welfare, education, and future
