Story

Gulf for Good Challengers will be trekking to Everest Base Camp (5380m) to raise funds for children in Nepal from the 10th to 24th of April 2020.

This Challenge will support a charity project in partnership with Street Child Nepal, building schools for the early years children of migrant labourers in brick kiln factories. Recent research shows that of the 60,000 children living in brick kilns, 66% of those children asked during the brick-making season said that they had never attended school. In addition to giving them schooling and allowing them to continue when they return home, this project gives the children a nourishing lunch and prevents them from working or playing around the brick kilns.

Each participant is tasked with raising a minimum of AED5,000 to support this project and, together, change the lives of these children.

While we love YallaGive, please note that 4% of the funds you donate here will go to YallaGive in credit card and platform fees. Please donate in other methods when you can.

Please note that 10% of your donation will go to the International Humanitarian City's emergency preparedness and response work and 15% will go to Gulf for Good’s unrestricted fund to be used at the Board’s discretion.

This event is approved by the Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department, license number 3411.
