Dubai, 18 June 2017 – Eton Institute was chosen as a privileged recipient of “The Year of Giving 2017” Award on 13th June 2017, at The Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina. There were 11 awardees that stood out among 500 business partners and 26 academic institutions invited in the special Iftar organized by DKP and DIAC.
This event was in celebration of "The Year of Giving 2017" initiated by the UAE President, His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to highlight values such as: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Volunteering and Serving the Nation, among companies and institutions across the UAE.
In addition to its impressive record of giving back to the community, below are some of the more recent CSR initiatives that Eton Institute has carried out, as part of its mission to promote tolerance and cultural diversity through languages and communication:

Free Cultural Workshops
Eton Institute conducts free cultural workshops for the UAE's expat community. From learning cultural dos and don’ts to tips on matters such as renting an apartment, these workshops support new expats as they explore their host country. A workshop was recently held at DKP Conference Room on 17th May 2017.
Phrasebooks and eBooks Giveaway
Following the distribution of 2 million Emirati Phrasebooks (in celebration of the UAE 45th National Day in December 2016), Eton Institute has been giving out more Emirati Phrasebooks to mosques across Dubai and Abu Dhabi during Ramadan. In addition, Eton Institute has provided language eBooks to its students (in the language of their choice), since January 2017.
