Aimed to fight food waste and help people in need, Dubai Municipality has officially launched the third UAE Food Bank in Muhaisana 2 on Tuesday.
Located near the labour camps in Muhaisana, the new bank will collect surplus packaged and canned foods from nearby supermarkets and food establishments, which will be handed over to partner charity organisations, who will distribute them to individuals and families in need.
Dawood Al Hajiri, Director General of Dubai Municipality, and vice chairman of board of trustees of the UAE Food Bank, told Khaleej Times on the sidelines of the launch that since its inception in 2017, a total of 4,500 tonnes has been collected and distributed to persons in need.
Hajiri also revealed that DM is in talks with Abu Dhabi Municipality to expand the programme to the capital. Separate banks will be launched in Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah later this year as well, according to senior DM officials
