Empowering Local Entrepreneurs
Families in Abu Dhabi who run small businesses from home are receiving vital new support. The Authority of Social Contribution, Ma'an, launched an exciting new initiative today. The program, called My Family Innovates, helps turn small ventures into competitive, sustainable businesses. It prepares these productive families to enter the broader commercial market successfully. Director General Abdullah Al Ameri stated the program gives families the tools to move forward. He wants to create an environment where local families can learn directly from one another. This initiative helps them turn their raw potential into tangible, positive economic action. The launch ties in perfectly with the UAE's ongoing Year of Family celebrations.
Teaching Essential Digital Skills
Instructors will teach participants essential skills regarding entrepreneurship, business management, branding, and digital marketing. They will also learn how to utilize modern artificial intelligence tools effectively. The program aims to reach 150 ambitious individuals across the entire Abu Dhabi emirate. It is completely open to participants at different stages of their unique business journeys. This includes supporting low-income families and ambitious People of Determination looking for new opportunities. The authority runs the program in close collaboration with partners from several different sectors. Dedicated volunteers also play a central role by offering invaluable hands-on mentoring experiences. The authority expects this combination of learning and mentorship to make families highly independent.
Strengthening The Community
The financial and educational benefits will reach the participants' extended families directly. "Strong families are at the heart of thriving communities," Al Ameri added proudly. The program brings communities together around shared opportunities for vital growth and learning. The authority runs a wide portfolio of programs aimed at strengthening self-reliance.
