Story

'Run for a Reason' is a beloved annual charity event at Brighton College Dubai. It brings our school community together to dress up as superheroes and run around the track to support meaningful causes and initiatives.

This year, on January 24th 2025, we will be running in support of 'Wellness on Wheels' program by the Al Jalila Foundation.

'Wellness on Wheels' is the first charitable mobile healthcare clinic funded by the community. Its mission is to provide medical services to senior citizens, blue-collar workers, people of determination, orphans, and other underprivileged individuals. You can read more about it here.

At Brighton College Dubai, kindness is at the centre of everything that we do. We'd like to encourage everyone to help us spread kindness and support this valuable cause by donating to this campaign. We look forward to seeing the superheroes of our community on the school running track on January 24th!

Al Jalila Foundation, a global healthcare philanthropic organisation dedicated to transforming lives, was founded by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Ruler of Dubai in April 2013, to position Dubai and the UAE at the forefront of medical innovation.

Al Jalila Foundation supports medical treatment for individuals unable to afford quality healthcare; provides education and scholarship programs to nurture a home-grown generation of medical professionals and supports ground-breaking research that addresses health challenges prevalent in the region including cancer.
