Dubai Cares announced its ‘Adopt a School” initiative’ for 2019, inviting UAE-based individuals and organisations to adopt one or more schools in Cambodia, Malawi, Nepal, and/or Senegal.
It can cost as little as AED132,000 to adopt a two-classroom primary school benefitting 100 students in Malawi. The funds not only cover the construction of a new community-based school, but also the provision of books, supplies, gender-specific latrines, teacher training, and adult literacy courses. Benefactors also have the opportunity to travel alongside colleagues, friends, and family on a week-long volunteering mission to immerse themselves in the local community that will host the new school.
