JEDDAH: The Saudi Food Bank (Et’aam), a prominent non-profit organisation specialised in food in Saudi Arabia and the gulf region, collaborates with numerous companies across various industries through its ‘Iftar fast breaking program’ during Ramadan.
This initiative aims to distribute essential food packages to those in need during the holy month of Ramadan, a period characterised by reflection, celebration, and giving back.
These food boxes contain essential items and are distributed among families or individuals identified as requiring food assistance. The program plays a crucial role in the Saudi Food Bank’s efforts to provide nutritional support to the beneficiaries in Saudi Arabia.
Et’aam focuses on establishing strategic partnerships tailored to food support, ensuring the provision of safe and sustainable food for individuals facing social challenges and those with limited incomes.
This year, the Saudi Food Bank is partnering with Kiri, a part of the Bel Group, for the ‘Iftar fast breaking program’, a special Ramadan initiative. This collaborative effort aims to spread kindness and compassion by distributing 20,000 fresh meals to individuals in need across Jeddah during the holy month. This initiative, part of the ‘Iftar fast breaking Project’, aligns with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030 to ensure inclusive access to nutritious food for all, as well as underscores Kiri’s commitment to making meaningful contributions to society and spreading kindness across Saudi communities.
As part of the initiative, the iftar meals will feature a wholesome combination of Kiri cheese with bread, fresh juice, and fruits, embodying the essence of Ramadan and fostering community solidarity. Each meal will be meticulously packed daily to ensure freshness and maintain the highest standards of taste, aiming to make a positive impact on Jeddah society. Furthermore, this collaboration highlights Bel Group’s commitment to engaging with the Kingdom’s culture and championing charitable endeavors.
