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

The Prep Pupil Council at Brighton College Dubai annually organise a special wishing tree and make snowflakes that are given to each member of our community, with the aim that they write down a wish for the future and place their snowflake on the tree. This is a wonderful way to encourage our pupils to be reflective and responsible citizens of the world. Our College values of kindness and curiosity link very well with the theme 'humanity inspired'. Our pupils are lucky enough to have a wonderful education which affords them many opportunities and this should not be taken for granted. The money raised will go to Dubai Cares education programmes that will support under privileged pupils and hopeful give them the chance for a better future.

A big thanks to our supporters
