Astra Tech, the leading consumer technology holding group in the MENA region, in collaboration with the Authority of Social Contribution – Ma’an, announced the launch of ‘CharityGPT’’ on the Botim platform.
This innovative feature is a regional first, employing GPT for good to enable Botim’s 9 million users to effortlessly support the “Together for Every Orphan” initiative, the company said in a media statement.
“Embracing the giving spirit of Ramadan, Botim’s ‘CharityGPT’ allows users to make impactful contributions through simple text commands,” the company said.
This initiative enhances Botim’s ongoing efforts to support community welfare, complementing Astra Tech’s collaboration with Emirates Red Crescent on various donation initiatives.
Abdallah Abu-Sheikh, Founder of Astra Tech and CEO of Botim, said the new initiative is a testament to how technology can be harnessed for good, extending our philanthropic reach and impacting society positively.
“While fear of job loss due to AI is a common concern, today we are demonstrating how we can instead harness its power to facilitate charity and positively impact millions of people around the world,” he said.
Since its inception in 2019, the Social Contribution Authority – Ma’an has been instrumental in uniting government, private sector, and civil society to drive social innovation, reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s position as a global hub.
The introduction of ‘CharityGPT’, particularly during the month of Ramadan, is a significant step in the convergence of technology and philanthropy.
It also reflects the dedication of UAE-based tech organisations to community service, showcasing the profound potential of AI in facilitating acts of kindness and generosity.
