Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo will be in Dubai Mall next week to raise funds for international charity Save the Children.
The Real Madrid player, who will also be participating in this year’s Dubai Sports Council’s (DSC) Sixth Dubai International Sports Conference, will meet fans in the mall on December 27, and sign 10 charity t-shirts for winners of a Dubai Mall competition.
He will also be a speaker at the Save the Children gala dinner on December 28 being held at the Armani hotel in association with the third Globe Soccer event, where game shirts donated by the world’s top 10 footballers will be auctioned off in a bid to raise additional funds for the children.
“We are hoping to highlight the role of sports in changing children’s lives and the commitment of those players to make a difference towards those children,” the charity’s director of Gulf partnerships told Arabian Business. More info
