The #IftarForFastingFamilies campaign for this year’s Ramadan concluded successfully after a series of humanitarian initiatives aimed at supporting vulnerable families and providing iftar meals across camps and areas with the greatest need.

The campaign culminated with the distribution of the final iftar meal, generously funded by the Hayr Way Foundation, reaffirming the spirit of generosity and solidarity that characterized the campaign throughout the holy month. The initiative brought joy to beneficiaries and helped alleviate the daily burdens of the most vulnerable families.
