Careem, the region's leading multi-service platform, has launched a Donations tile on the app home screen to allow customers in the UAE to give back to important causes in the region.
People across the UAE can now use the Careem app to donate to some of the most impactful non-profit organisations in the region focused on Careem's three pillars of Education, Economic Empowerment, and Emergency Relief.
Careem has partnered with UNHCR, UNICEF, the World Food Programme (WFP), and Dubai Cares to connect the app to some of the region's most important causes. WFP provides refugee children with meals to help them focus during the school day, while UNHCR supports refugees in need of economic assistance, ensuring that they can support themselves with income-generating opportunities and grants for essential goods. Dubai Cares and UNICEF fall under the Education category, providing millions of children with access to teachers, school supplies, and digital learning for children in Lebanon, Jordan, and Egypt.
The new Donations tile is currently available to customers in the UAE, with plans to extend the offering to other markets later this year.
In the last three years, Careem has donated over $3 million towards social impact. To make a donation, open or download Careem from the Apple App Store, Google Play, or via direct Android download.
