How UAE Lottery is helping workers take control of their finances
Building financial confidence
Suzan Kazzi, associate director of the CSR at Momentum – The UAE Lottery, has noted that financial literacy plays a critical role in helping people build confidence and stability.
“Financial knowledge is a powerful enabler of confidence, and long-term financial stability. Through H.O.P.E., we are committed to driving initiatives that equip individuals with practical life skills to help them build better opportunities for themselves and shape a more secure future,” stated Kazzi.
Moreover, she has mentioned that the workshop reflects the organisation’s belief in people-focused partnerships that can create meaningful and lasting impact across communities.
Empowering workers through knowledge
According to SmartLife Foundation, financial education can have a significant impact on workers who often dedicate themselves to supporting their families while having limited access to structured guidance on managing money.
For his part, Abhijeet Oak, vice president at SmartLife Foundation, has highlighted the importance of making financial knowledge more accessible.
“At SmartLife Foundation, we strongly believe that knowledge creates empowerment. Many blue-collar workers dedicate themselves tirelessly to supporting their families yet often have limited access to structured financial education,” said Oak.
He added, “Through partnerships like this, we can help individuals make informed financial decisions, build healthier financial habits, and plan more confidently for the future.”
Supporting national priorities
Meanwhile, the workshop forms part of H.O.P.E.’s broader outreach efforts, which align with key national priorities and focus on creating “meaningful and lasting social impact” across the UAE.
By providing workers with practical tools to manage their finances more effectively, the initiative eyes to support greater financial resilience, encourage informed decision-making, and help participants plan for a more secure future.
