Check This Out: Youtuber AboFlah Will Live in a Glass Room in Dubai to Raise $10M for Refugees!

So amazing!

From today, Youtuber AboFlah, will reside in a glass box in Downtown Dubai as part of a UAE drive to raise $10 million to help tens of thousands of refugees and others in need across the region!

AboFlah's Fundraising Campaign – UNHCR (The UN Refugee Agency)

AboFlah, a content creator with over 22 million subscribers and astonishing 2.8 billion views on the social media site, is on a mission to use his popularity to help those in need survive the winter weather.

He has promised to remain in the box – which will be publicly visible in Burj Park in Downtown Dubai, near the Burj Khalifa – until the cash goal is met.

His real name is Hassan Suleiman, and he has accumulated a large online following thanks to his vlogs, comedy shorts, and shows about video games and popular culture. You’ll also be able to watch his experience live through his YouTube channel!

This is part of the UAE’s World’s Coolest Winter tourism strategy, which includes the Warm Winter initiative.

The campaign aims to provide vital food, warm clothing, blankets, mattresses, and critical aid to approximately 100,000 relocated men, women, and children in order to help them prepare for harsh winter conditions.

This is not the first time AboFlah has used his global platform to help others.

In collaboration with UNHCR, he helped raise $1 million from 31,000 donors during a 28-hour live broadcast in October to help refugees in Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq.

This is so inspiring and will hopefully encourage others to follow his path to help contribute in helping others around the world!

Do good & good will follow you!
