Robbed

#1
Two weeks ago my boyfriend who works for 6 months in Dubai got robbed. He lost all his documents and money. He also went to the police and blocked his credit card. We mannaged to send him little money trough one of his coworkes to buy some food,but the problem is we dont have enough money to send him to get his new credit card to Dubai or for him to make new documents. The bank and his embassy wont help him. What can we do?
