We’re proud to reflect on the incredible success of Students for Students 2025 - Dubai Cares’ flagship community initiative that united students, teachers, school staff and parents across the UAE in a powerful demonstration of compassion, generosity, and youth-led action. This year, 17 schools came together to help us fundraise for, source, and pack thousands of school kits for children from low-income families - raising over AED 672,000 to support educational access and readiness for the upcoming academic year.
Packing Days Full of Purpose
Between April 21 and May 16, more than 2,100 students participated in our volunteer days, packing school kits with care, joy, and a deep sense of community. These moments weren’t just about assembling supplies, they were a celebration of empathy, teamwork, and student-led impact in action.
What’s Next
The journey doesn’t end here. In the coming months, we’ll begin distributing the packed school kits to children across the UAE in time for the new academic year. We’ll continue sharing updates and stories, so stay connected as the impact of Students for Students unfolds throughout the summer.
Thank You to Our School Communities
To every student who fundraised and volunteered, every teacher who guided and inspired, and every staff member who made it all happen - thank you. Your collective commitment ensures thousands of children will start their school year feeling confident, supported, and ready to learn.
