Giving back with Right Click: Careem customers donate $170,000 over Ramadan

April 18, 2024

This Ramadan, our customers turned the spirit of giving into action with a whopping $170,000 raised for regional causes through Right Click—our revamped social impact platform that’s redefining what it means to give back. 

Launched on the first day of Ramadan, Right Click empowers Careem customers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Pakistan to discover more ways to connect with their communities, offering up simple ways to donate and change lives with just a few taps. Over time, the platform aims to provide a seamless donations experience and increase transparency to show how your contributions translate to real on-ground impact. 

Whether by buying a Quik Grocery box for families in need, paying for meals through our Eat to Fill a Plate campaign, making direct donations and Zakat contributions to regional causes, or supporting the Palestinian relief through buying Gaza T-shirts – our customers have done it all – and then some! Our partner organizations have been pivotal in directing your kindness to where it’s needed most. They include Emirates Red Crescent and Dubai Cares in the UAE, Al Aman Fund, King Hussein Cancer Foundation, Tikiyet Um Ali and SOS Children’s Villages in Jordan, Al Birr Society and Children with Disabilities Association in Saudi Arabia, and The Citizens Foundation in Pakistan. 

We’re excited to see so many customers use the Careem Everything App to give back to their communities. Right Click embodies Careem’s purpose to simplify and improve the lives of those that need it most. We’re grateful to have the opportunity to help our customers make a meaningful impact through our platform, and we’re leveraging technology for good as we build long term social impact by investing in crucial building blocks of development, such as education, income generation and emergency relief.

Over the past five years, the generosity of our customers and colleagues has amounted to more than $4.7 million in humanitarian and development assistance in partnership with over 35 non-profit and private sector partners. 

This Ramadan, you’ve shown us what it means to be Careem 💚
