Ramadan is a time for peace, reflection and togetherness where families and loved ones gather to break their fast come sundown. This Ramadan, citizens in Gaza have been left without food, peace and, for many, family members, due to the ongoing atrocities and acts of violence that have cost the lives of over 31,000 Palestinians and displaced millions. Charities in the UAE have implemented Ramadan campaigns to assist people in the Gaza Strip during the Holy Month, offering essential aid.
The Ramadan Continuous Giving Campaign by Emirates Red Crescent will support families in need throughout the UAE and around the world, with a focus on Gaza. One of its key initiatives is to provide 10,000 Iftar meals to Palestinians per day alongside Eid clothing and Ramadan food parcels. Residents in the UAE can physically donate to any of the 321 Emirates Red Crescent donation sites throughout the region. Meanwhile, donations are still being accepted through the Tarahum - For Gaza campaign. Find the list of collection sites here
