As part of the #BuildingCommunities campaign being organised by Emaar, Emaar’s management along with community residents organised an Iftar for its community workers and service providers to mark the spirit of service and sharing during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
The Iftar was held at Arabian Ranches 2 and was attended by representatives of all service providers that serve Emaar communities in Dubai. They were welcomed by Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Managing Director – Emaar Properties.
Residents signed up to donate laban, juices, breads and fruits, while families poured in as volunteers to serve and usher the community staff at the food stations. Homeowners, tenants, school groups, young and old who were part of the initiative, said it was honour for them to volunteer and serve the people working to keep their community beautiful. The event was attended by over 750 staff including security guards, lifeguards, MEP staff and cleaning staff.

Yesterday Jody and I hosted our annual I Love A Clean San Diego #coastalcleanupday2023 site at Cooper Canyon, here in City Heights. In partnership with Linda Pennington and Project C.L.E.A.N. we continue to engage volunteers in acts of service while clearing litter, invasive plants, illegal dumping and graffiti from our streets and canyons, saving much of it from continuing down the watershed into our bay.
We are typically able to get upwards of 50 volunteers to our site, but the stars didn’t align. We did, however, have a dozen people on site who made swift work of our parkway and the top of Cooper Canyon. With a couple truck loads from Azalea Park Neighborhood Association, and San Diego Canyonlands, we filled our dumpster, donated by Veteran’s Dumpster Rental. Our Hula Hooping neighbor, Walter jumped in and made a big dent in clearing the brush from the path. We had leaders (and their kids), as well as students from Cardinals Interact, who made time on their own to show up.
I began the morning in the pre-dawn light waiting for our dumpster to arrive. As I photographed the “before” images I was dismayed to see more than 30 poop piles and hundreds of cigarette butts along the parkway. There is also a well-intentioned “cat lady” who leaves bowl after bowl of food for the feral cats. This all leads to people not caring for our community. I contacted her and made a better plan for her work. There was also a neighbor who walked his dogs, letting them do their business in the strip. I asked him the favor of carrying bags in the future and advised that I would do a clean-sweep of the space to have a fresh start. In return he not only came back to collect his own dogs’ mess, but I was surprised to discover he had cleared the entire parkway before I came back with our supplies. He drove by and left his info to be included in future events. #buildingcommunity
We did so much in just a few hours. We’re grateful for the resources provided and the platform for this worldwide cleanup event.
