Emirates Red Crescent Distributing 1 Month Food to Needy People in UAE


The Emirates Red Crescent is distributing and has already distributed a total of 5,000 food parcels amongst various segments of society as part of its contributions to the ‘Fund of the UAE- Homeland of Humanity’.



The move comes as part of the National Food Security Strategy, which aims to provide food for orphans, people of determination, elderly people, People with chronic disease, indigent families and low-income segments of society.

The distributed parcels include 26 key stables such as:

·       Rice
·       Wheat
·       Sugar
·       Milk
·       Oils
·       Legumes
·       Canned food
·        Pasta
·       Noodles
·       Lentils
·       Chickpeas
·       Juice
·       Cheese
·       Tea along with other substances.



The distributed food parcels contains a sufficient amount of food to meet one month-long needs of every family benefiting from the assistance, noting that the ERC will continue to distribute the food assistance to meet the requirements of the targeted groups.

The assistance has been deployed at the country level by the ERC teams and their voluntary cadres, who’ve delivered the food to the beneficiaries in their places of residence while adhering to the precautionary and preventive measures taken nationwide to avoid mixing, overcrowding and gatherings as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Commenting on the development, Dr. Mohammed Ateeq Al Falahi, ERC Secretary-General, has underlined the determination of H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ruler’s Representative in Al Dhafra Region, Chairman of the Emirates Red Crescent, to further widen the role played by the Emirates Red Crescent across the local scene under these trying times.


“H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan is following with great interest the plans and programs prepared by the ERC to support the efforts aimed to bring the coronavirus under control, and to create convenient conditions for families and various segments of society to stay home and protect themselves from the consequences of the pandemic,” he added.


“The ERC is collaborating with its partners at the ‘Fund of the UAE- Homeland of Humanity’, primarily the National Emergency Crisis and Disasters Management Authority, to strengthen the contributions of the Fund and to get additional donors and contributors to chip in its health, educational, logistics and food programmes. The ERC is also coordinating with other Emirati charity and humanitarian organisations to widen the base of the Fund’s beneficiaries.”

“The ERC is keen to ensure supply chain diversification amongst local suppliers, vendors and merchants to vitalize the domestic market and mitigate the economic impact of the coronavirus,” he noted.

  4. To whom it may concern,
    Good day everyone! May I ask of you where can I get some help regarding food assistance which is given to those in need? I was working in Global Village as a exhibitor in Japan Pavillion but because of the Covid19 we are forced to closed and my visa was cancelled by the said workplace last March 14 , 2020 and left me unprepared and did not have time to keep money for myself to buy food to get through this pandemic as we are all in Lockdown. I would like to know if you have extra hand to reach me out and help me get through this difficult times. Anything you could offer will be a great help on me.I hope and pray that the Lord will completely heal our land and save us all. Thank You so much for your kind attention. God bless us all.
