Action Care conducted five Start Early seminars throughout the UAE (April - May 2010)

With the sponsorship of Boeing, Action Care conducted five Start Early seminars throughout the UAE. The seminars focused on providing training and assistance to parents, educators and caregivers, equipping them with the skills needed to make an early investment in the education and development of the children in their care.

The seminars were held at the following locations:

  • Ajman University of Science and Technology; attended by 24 kindergarten and primary school teachers from Ajman Education Zone
  • Fujairah Ministry of Social Affairs Community Development Center, attended by 22 mothers in the community
  • Sharjah Ladies Club, attended by 26 teachers and caregivers from the Basateen Nursery
  • Zayed University, Abu Dhabi, attended by 26 education, IT and business majors
  • Dar Zayed for Family Care, Al Ain, attended by 24 Dar Zayed house mothers of orphan children in Al Ain

     

Years from now, when we bump into some of these students and they thank you for helping them to be successful and good people in life, that's when the contentment really hits you. Thank you for letting me reach that point of happiness, by doing just a little to make a difference for these kids.
