Overview
Your shared meals are helping provide school meals to children in need.
This Ramadan, join Dubai Holding and the United Nations World Food Programme in feeding school children in need ‘For the Good of Tomorrow’. School feeding encourages families to send their children to school, which not only helps them reach their potential but strengthens community cohesion, stability and productivity. Today, more than 73 million vulnerable children are in need of school meals. The World Food Programme is working to ensure school children receive the nutritional support they need to be healthy and focus on their education.
