Yardi Dubai supports the Al Noor Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities<\/a> as part of the company\u2019s global program of philanthropic support for nonprofits and NGOs.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Team<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Established in 1981, Al Noor provides special education, care and services to those with neurodivergent challenges such as Down Syndrome, Autism, Cerebral Palsy or a combination of conditions. Among its successes, Al Noor has prepared up to 100 students for work placement in the community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al Noor staff have developed a curriculum for students that significantly impacts lives and helps them be independent members of the community. Al Noor plans to establish additional training and services that will enhance and develop the lives of its students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe wish to work closely with corporations like Yardi .. to partner with us on our various projects,\u201d said Apple Castaneda, senior sustainability and community relations executive for Al Noor.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al Noor charges subsidized fees to parents or, in some cases, the total tuition fees for parents who cannot afford to pay the fees. They have a no-rejection policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe do a holistic approach to giving our students the maximum quality of training and education to maximize their potential,\u201d said Castaneda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Funding from Yardi helps Al Noor obtain resources through financial support, ensuring the organization can maximize potential care to students. Yardi has consistently provided sustainable financial contributions to the center, enabling the organization to expand its educational programs for children with determination. This has enhanced individuals’ learning experience and skill development under Al Noor\u2019s care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Centre is very thankful for the continued support of Yardi, as it is helping us fulfill our mission of giving an equal opportunity to our students of determination and being out there in the community,\u201d shared Castaneda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#TeamYardi<\/strong><\/a> and Celebrating World Cerebral Palsy Day<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yardi employees actively engage through volunteer programs and activities, fostering a deeper connection between the team and the Al Noor community. They recently came together to raise awareness and celebrate the incredible children with determination at Al Noor for World Cerebral Palsy Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a community, we must support and empower these amazing kids. We will continue to break down barriers and create an inclusive world where every child can thrive,\u201d shared Oksana Goliak, office manager of the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, Yardi Dubai has significantly impacted Al Noor\u2019s mission,contributing to the development and well-being of individuals with determination. Yardi Dubai has volunteered time and expertise, fostering a collaborative environment to empower Al Noor\u2019s programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aditya Shah, senior director of Yardi Dubai office, shares, \u201cYardi Dubai takes great pride in our commitment to philanthropy, particularly our partnership with Al Noor, a cause close to our hearts. Our engagement extends beyond financial contributions, involving participation in various community initiatives. Our commitment goes beyond charity; it\u2019s about creating lasting change. By aligning with Al Noor\u2019s values, we aim to uplift and empower the community, making a positive and sustainable impact on the lives of those we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shah joined Yardi in 2005 and then moved to Dubai in January 2013, a remarkable journey for him with tremendous achievements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe growth and accomplishment of Yardi has exceeded expectations,\u201d said Shah. \u201cThe company’s dedication to innovation, client satisfaction, and community engagement has propelled us to new heights. It\u2019s a testament to the collective efforts and forward-thinking approach of everyone at Yardi. We continue to build a brighter, more inclusive future, reflecting Yardi\u2019s dedication to social responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteer Opportunities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, the only volunteer opportunities are during Al Noor events. The next major event is the Al Noor Family Funfair 2024 in February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
