The ’10 Million meals’ campaign surpassed its target a week after the initiative was launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
Massive contributions from companies, humanitarian organizations, businessmen, government agencies and the citizens have reached 11 million.
The campaign, which considered as the UAE’s biggest food distribution drive, will continue throughout the holy month of Ramadan after drawing massive engagement within the first week of its launch to provide meals or equivalent food parcels to individuals and families in the UAE affected by the coronavirus outbreak that led many to unemployment and major income reductions.
