Parents, Ramadan is a time for reflection, compassion and giving. During the holy month we are reminded of the importance of coming together to help the most vulnerable. This year, as the world begins to recover from the pandemic, we are mindful that many communities around the world still face the daily threat of neglected tropical diseases. Diseases like river blindness cause lifelong disability and suffering but are entirely preventable. The Reach Campaign is working to end these diseases and ensure a brighter future for all. Our Ramadan 2021 School Campaign is DIRHAMS FOR CHANGE. We are asking schools to strive to encourage their community to donate 2 AED to save 2 Eyes during the month of Ramadan. Just 2 AED provides treatment to protect one person from river blindness for an entire year. All proceeds will be donated to Emirates Red Crescent in support of the Reach Campaign. Please encourage your school community to text "GIVE" to 2424 to donate 2 AED.
Regards, Abu Dhabi,UAE
