Under the patronage of H.E. Sheikh Nahyan Mabarak Al Nahyan, the Minister of Culture, Youth and Community Development, SmallWorld the international charity organization welcomed with great pleasure, the Mega Star Ricky Martin, not as a performer, not as a tourist, but rather as a philanthropist to support the internationally renowned charity organization ‘SmallWorld’ in its fight against child slavery worldwide. Ricky Martin dedicated his life to save children from trafficking and who created his own institution called Ricky Martin Foundation. It’s with great honor that SmallWorld announces Ricky Martin as their Ambassador for the year 2013.

Under the slogan “Liberate and Educate”. The patron of Small World H.E. Sheikh Nahyan Mabarak Al Nahyan, the Minister of Culture, Youth and Community Development, along with Mrs. Salam Hamzeh Ghaith, the founder & President of SmallWorld, recognized Ricky Martin’s initiative and support by providing him with an on-stage award as the SmallWorld Ambassador for 2013. Additionally, appreciation awards were given out to those whose effort added a remarkable value to the event.
During the first night, the Gala dinner hosted more than 500 people, who were taken to a place of endless glamour and elegance. The second night was the SmallWorld Grand event; this night was like the two previous events of 2012 and 2011 and was attended by more than 1,000 guests that had an unmatched level of energy and excitement.
