In 2016, the late Sheikh Khalifa declared 2017 as the Year of Giving. Under this initiative, UAE federal and local governments, as well as private sector launched hundreds of humanitarian initiatives. Individuals also contributed donations and volunteered time to serve philanthropic causes inside the UAE and abroad.
The government introduced new legislative and executive frameworks to ensure that the UAE remains a regional and global capital for humanitarianism and that the culture of philanthropy remains deeply instilled in the community.
