Qidwai Welfare Trust had a very successful 2015 Ramadan Food Distribution, where we distributed from June 16 – June 21 approximately 71,250kg (157,300 lb) of food stables to 1,350 Zakat eligible families, and arranged to have 375 orphans and student to be fed during the month of Ramadan.
Each family received a food pack with approximately 50kg (110 lb) of food stables, including 20kg of flour, 10kg of rice, 5kg of sugar, 5kg of oil, 4kg of lentils, 2kg of chickpeas, 2kg of gram flour, 1kg of dates, 0.5kg of tea, 0.5 kg of salt, 2 bottles of concentrated juice and mix spices.
We distributed 270 food packs in Burma Town – Punjab, 100 food packs in Tarnol – Punjab, 30 food packs in Islamabad, 200 food packs in Mansehra – KPK, 50 food packs in Upper Dir KPK, 200 food packs in Bagh – Azzad Jammu Kashmir, 200 food packs in Lahore – Punjab, 200 food packs in Tharparkar – Sindh, 100 food packs in Karachi – Sindh.
All the families/recipients were pre-screened by our partner organizations, (Muslim Aid Pakistan, Almustafa Development Network, and Help Change a Life), a couple of days prior to the distribution and all efforts were made to ensure they were Zakat eligible. Preference was given to poor and needy families of orphans, widows and disabled people.
The distribution was also facilitated by a team of older boys and foster couples from our Orphan Homes. This was done to help build our own capacity and to get the older children involved in charity and welfare activities.
By the grace of Allah, this was the eighth consecutive year Qidwai Welfare Trust organized its annual Ramadan Food Distribution.
