The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI) has announced that as a part of the 100 million meals campaign, 19 million meals will be donated to the Gaza Strip.
Individuals and families struggling will receive food vouchers through the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), which will help them buy the food required for their nutrition.
The initiative will help support individuals from Palestine that have taken refuge in UN schools and headquarters and have fled to homes from loved ones in the Gaza Strip.
Sara Al Nuaimi, Director of MBRGI said, “About 70 percent of families in the Gaza Strip are facing food insecurity, according to WFP figures. The additional food support, provided through the ‘100 Million Meals’ campaign, is a message of solidarity from the UAE to those most affected by this difficult reality.”
The ‘100 Million Meals’ campaign was conducted through the MBRGI, the WFP, the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and Humanitarian and Charity Establishment, the Food Banking Regional Network, and local charity organisations and authorities to supply food to 30 countries.
