MUKALLA (WAM)
The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) launched a campaign to support charitable bakeries in Mukalla, Ash Shihr, and Ghail Bawazir in Hadramaut, Yemen.
The aim is to enhance food security and address the needs of the local population.
This comes as part of the ERC's continuous efforts to support needy families in the governorate.
During the second half of the holy month of Ramadan, the first phase of the campaign will provide 500 bags of flour to five charitable bakeries in the mentioned districts. This support will enable them to produce an adequate amount of bread.
Supervisor of Charitable Bakeries in the Governorate, Salem Omar Baras, highlighted the significance of this campaign in promoting economic stability and improving living conditions in the targeted areas.
He also emphasised that the initiative, backed by ERC, has been instrumental in assisting families facing shortages of essential items due to the high cost of living and challenging circumstances in the country.
Supervisor of ERC Projects in Hadramaut, Hamed Salem Qawaya, clarified that the campaign will progress with additional phases to boost the operational capacity of charitable bakeries and broaden their impact.
The goal is to help the local community's needs and foster self-sufficiency in bread production.
These endeavours align with the UAE's unwavering dedication to supporting needy families in the governorate, enhancing stability and development in underprivileged regions, and enhancing economic and social conditions for local communities.
ERC has executed numerous humanitarian and development projects in Hadramaut and other liberated regions over the years.
These initiatives have significantly improved living standards and catered to the population's requirements in various areas.
