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
Hi. I am a third-year computer engineering student studying at the American University of Sharjah. My father lost his job during the pandemic and is now busy taking care of his mother in the ICU. My mother is the only one working for the family and it hurts me to not be able to do anything. It would really help me with any amount of donation from any of you to ease my family's financial burden in terms of my university fees. I really want to graduate and help my parents as much as possible. However, I need some amount of financial support to help me achieve my dream. Thank you so much for any donation you provide.
