Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) has announced a donation of AED1 million to the 1 Billion Meals initiative, the region’s largest food donation campaign of its kind.
The initiative targets supporting underprivileged and disadvantaged communities in 50 countries around the world, uniting efforts exerted by charitable individuals, companies, organisations, businesspeople and philanthropists, to provide relief to millions who suffer from food insecurities in underprivileged communities.
The 1 Billion Meals initiative is organised by Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI), in cooperation with the United Nations World Food Programme (UNWFP), the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Charitable & Humanitarian Establishment (MBRCH), the Food Banking Regional Network (FBRN), the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and the UAE Food Bank.
ADIB’s donation will secure one million meals, which are comprised of either key ingredients for a nutritious meal, food parcels, or instant smart vouchers that can be traded for food in designated centres in their communities.
