Dubai – TOYIT, the first specialized classifieds platform in the region for pre-loved kids’ items, has signed an agreement with Dubai Cares, part of Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives to support its Education Uninterrupted campaign, a nationwide fundraising campaign that tackles the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the education of children and youth in the UAE.
Launched by Dubai Cares and the UAE Ministry of Education, the campaign called on the UAE community to make financial and in-kind donations in support of children and youth from low-income families who cannot afford to purchase a desktop computer, laptop or tablet and join their peers in distance learning from the safety of their home.
Members on TOYIT.TODAY can now choose to donate used laptops, tablets, desktops and computer accessories to contribute to this Campaign.
TOYIT.TODAY enables families to let go of their unwanted kids’ items in a responsible way by selling them, donating them to others or to relevant charities.
