Umeed 2025 is a special evening dedicated to supporting education in Pakistan. The event will feature performances by Faisal Kapadia, Hassan Raheem, and Shae Gill, offering a night filled with music, hope, and purpose.
The Citizens Foundation (TCF), founded in 1995, remains one of Pakistan’s leading non-profit organizations, committed to providing quality education to underprivileged children. With over 2,033 purpose-built school units educating more than 300,000 students, TCF has become a beacon of hope, transforming lives and communities. The organization continues to inspire global support for education as a tool for social change.
This event aligns with the UAE’s official announcement of 2025 as the Year of Community—a national initiative aimed at strengthening social bonds and promoting meaningful engagement. With over 1.2 million Pakistanis residing in the UAE, comprising nearly 13% of the population, Umeed 2025 serves as an opportunity to inspire the UAE’s expatriate communities toward a shared mission of impact and hope. TCF’s long-standing volunteers in the UAE are a testament to the power of community-driven change.
As the title sponsor, Careem’s CEO and co-founder, Mudassir Sheikha, emphasized the company’s commitment to giving back: “For everything Pakistan has given Careem, we feel a deep responsibility to give back.”
Faisal Kapadia, legendary singer and now TCF’s Brand Ambassador, added: “Music has the power to bring people together, and when it supports a cause as meaningful as education, it becomes even more powerful.”
Umeed 2025 will take place on November 2, 2025, at The Agenda in Dubai Media City. Tickets are available at www.dubai.platinumlist.ae/Umeed2025. All proceeds will go directly towards supporting TCF’s education programs in Pakistan.
