Our work in United Arab Emirates.

Manzil Centre of Disabilities

Sharjah, UAE

Manzil is a non-profit centre in Sharjah promoting inclusion through a professional learning environment for people with disabilities. Their work nurtures students' self-help, social, educational and vocational skills — the foundation supports their mission of shaping an inclusive society.

Ramadan Donation Drive

Dubai labour camps

Every Ramadan since 2023, the foundation has distributed essentials to labour camps and mosques in Dubai — rice, cooking oil, lentils, detergent, bath soaps, toothpaste and shaving blades, packed in eco-friendly bags. Our food distribution has now reached more than 6,000 people. An earlier drive during COVID found one camp that once housed 300 men sheltering only 64.
