Hi everyone,
I am reaching out to this amazing community to find any part-time work or short-term gigs available in the UAE.
Due to a sudden change in my family’s circumstances—my father recently lost his job—I am taking full responsibility for covering my own school fees and daily expenses. I am not looking for handouts; I am looking for the opportunity to work hard and earn my way.
Quick Info About Me:
Target Earnings: Looking for gigs paying around 500–700 AED to help keep me afloat.
Availability: Ready to start immediately (Part-time / Evenings / Weekends).
What I can do: I am open to almost anything—data entry, event staffing, tutoring, retail assistance, social media help, or general admin tasks.
If you know of any small projects, one-off events, or businesses needing an extra pair of hands, please reach out via DM or comment below.
I appreciate any leads or even a simple share/repost to help this reach the right person. Thank you for your support!

I am writing this with a heavy heart because I am terrified. I am an 18-year-old student in Sharjah/ Dubai. A few weeks ago, my father was let go from his real estate job. Since then, everything has stopped
We are now at the point where we are struggling to put food on the table, and my school is sending notices about my unpaid fees. I'm watching my parents stress every night, and as the eldest, I can't just sit here and watch us lose everything.
I need to work. I need to do anything legal to help buy groceries and save my education.
Please, I am begging for information on:
• Immediate Work: Are there any agencies that hire
18-year-olds for event work, leafleting, or cleaning that pay weekly or daily?
• Food Support: Where can I physically go tomorrow morning to get grocery assistance for my family?
We are running out of essentials.

Fee Assistance: Which UAE foundations actually help students keep their seats in school when a parent loses their job?
I am not looking for a handout; I am looking for a lifeline. I am hardworking and I will do any job. Please help me help my family.
