Sharjah Charity supports workers and needy families across emirate.
Sharjah Charity International distributed 15,000 Iftar meals to workers and underprivileged families across Sharjah on Tuesday evening as part of a large-scale humanitarian initiative marking the Day of Arafah.
The campaign, launched under the theme “Day of Arafah Meals,” was organised as part of the association’s seasonal programmes during the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah, focusing on supporting vulnerable groups and promoting social solidarity during one of the holiest periods in the Islamic calendar.
According to Abdullah Sultan Bin Khadim, the initiative reflects the organisation’s commitment to sharing the blessings and spirit of the occasion with workers and families in need across the emirate.
He said the meals were carefully prepared to provide balanced nutrition while maintaining the dignity and comfort of beneficiaries.
Bin Khadim added that extensive logistical coordination was carried out to ensure meals reached recipients on time and were distributed in an organised manner that respected privacy and managed crowd density effectively.
The distribution campaign was supervised by volunteer teams and field staff operating across various cities and branches under the direct oversight of the association.
The “Day of Arafah Meals” programme forms part of a broader package of humanitarian initiatives launched by the organisation during the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah.
These initiatives include Hajj support programmes, financial aid assistance, treatment support for critical medical cases, sacrificial meat distribution, Eid clothing campaigns, and infrastructure projects related to water, healthcare, and construction both within the UAE and internationally.
Sharjah Charity International said the programmes align with its ongoing mission to strengthen humanitarian support and community welfare during significant religious occasions.
