The Crown Prince of Dubai, Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and Chairman of the Executive Council has started an initiative called Day for Dubai. It requires the people of the city to take out one day from their busy schedule and help the society with knowledge and kindness.

Day for Dubai is a non-charitable organization that needs volunteers who can give one day from the entire year and dedicate it to people who need their time, knowledge and care. The initiative not only opens up a way to get into social work but also to add compassion and tolerance among people.

Who can you help on your Day for Dubai?

Elderly

Elderly people have a lot to teach you in return for your patience. There are many elderly people who feel lonely and might need attention. They have experienced the most of their life and have several tales to tell you. Attending old people will help you volunteer to their special needs and make them feel loved and cared for.

Children and Youth

You can volunteer for children and tweens to teach them a little about life. You need to express and communicate in such a way that they understand what you’re trying to teach them. It can be an interactive session that shapes their future a little better.

People of determination

On your Day for Dubai, you can spend time with the physically-abled to understand what they try to tell you and explore how you can comfort them. It is a nice way to determine their perspectives and figure out how to empower their lives towards more positivity.
