As part of the initiative of the Marriott hotels in the UAE, we invite you to donate 1 dollar per stay to support the mission of Dubai Cares to ensure access to quality education for disadvantaged children around the world. All proceeds collected during the initiative will be directed to the global educational programs of Dubai Cares, which address obstacles preventing children and youth from receiving quality education and realizing their potential, ensuring maximum impact on disadvantaged children.
Emphasizing the importance of this announcement, His Excellency Dr. Tariq Al-Gurg, the Executive Director and Vice-Chairman of Dubai Cares, noted: "This partnership with Marriott International is a strategic and influential example of how the hospitality sector can collaborate with philanthropy to contribute to human development at a global level."
This partnership underscores Marriott's commitment to social responsibility and continually supports Dubai Cares' efforts to provide disadvantaged children and youth with high-quality education and opportunities for their communities and countries through access to quality education.
On the occasion of the International Day of Education, Dubai Cares, a civil society organization formally linked to the United Nations Global Communications Office, announces a new partnership with Marriott International for the launch of the initiative "Education for Children" in February.
"We take pride in supporting Dubai Cares in their mission to change the lives of children through education. By combining Marriott's global presence with Dubai Cares' expertise in delivering transformative programs in 60 countries, we aim to highlight the important role that the private sector plays in shaping a more equitable future through education," remarked Sandip Ualiya, the Chief Operating Officer for the Middle East, Luxembourg region, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
"We believe in the power of travel to create positive change. Through the initiative 'Education for Children,' we provide our guests the opportunity to invest in something important that aligns with our core values of community support and social responsibility. Engaging guests in this simple yet effective way, all organizations aim to create a chain reaction of positive change in the lives of countless children."
