“Success for me lies in the belief that at the end of the day my
actions have had a positive effect on at least one person in the world”.
For several years now I have continued reaching
out with a kind heart and tender hands to special children and destitute people
giving them the faith and hope to realize, they are not in it alone. And
support is always there.
Believing
that ‘No act of kindness, no matter how small it is, is ever
wasted’ as a student in Dubai I have has led
many other students as well of youth group SynergY to distribute over 1500 food
packets to workers at landfill sites during 2013-2014 and also this
Ramadan. Ramadan
is a special time of year when Muslims around the world take a step back from
their daily routines and focus on community, charity, fasting, and prayer. Supported
by Dubai Municipality officials the campaign ‘Convoy to Feed’ welfare
many.
I have visited Missionaries of Charity and Leprosy
center every year and supported children suffering from Leprosy and mental
challenges with my savings and part of the award money that I have won over the
years. As UAE’s Youth Ambassador to
World Peace Caravan I continue promoting Peace and healthy lives for all especially
children in war -affected areas, and as the Youth Ambassador –A world at
School, ‘Up for School and Education for all’.
I always felt that “It is easy to sit up and take notice. What is difficult is
getting up and taking action. Love and kindness are never wasted. They always
make a difference. In a world where there is so much to be done, I feel
strongly impressed that there is something for me to do always.”
“I chose Dubai
Municipality landfill sites because we planted hundreds of trees in the past few
years at some of the landfills and understood how much of hard
work these people do for us and this would be our way to express gratitude and
share time with them during the holy month of Ramadan.”
Little did I know, that, being the
reason someone smiles today, as a 16-year-old I will be rewarded and honored as
unsung hero with the Splash ‘Heart of
Gold’ trophy for the good deeds becoming the reason behind hundreds and
hundreds of smiles and my passion for the humanitarian work.
