Step of Life
01 March 2025 - 30 March 2025
the Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department in Dubai has launched the third edition of the "Step of Life" initiative within the "Ramadan in Dubai" . The initiative represents a model of community solidarity that transforms participants' steps into real support for those in need, through an innovative mechanism that measures the number of steps and converts them into charitable contributions. The proceeds of the initiative are directed to the "Waqf Al-Ab" (Father's Endowment). The initiative is based on the principle of competition between ten residential neighborhoods of Dubai. The app allows participants to track their daily steps and add them to their team's community total. At the end of the month, the neighborhood with the highest number of steps is honored. However, the true value of the initiative lies in its long-term humanitarian impact. These collective steps contribute to providing tangible support to those in need through strategic partnerships with active charitable institutions, the most prominent of which over the past two years has been Al Jalila Foundation, which has benefited from the donations raised by this initiative to support those in need and people of determination.
