The holy month of Ramadan is a time for spiritual reflection, community building, and shared blessings. However, for many vulnerable families across Africa, it can also be a period of increased food insecurity and hardship.

This proposal outlines the From Fast to Feast: Celebrating Ramadan Together program, aimed at providing essential food support to 300 vulnerable families and 300 people in need across 6 countries: Malaysia, Nigeria, Tanzania, Ghana, Guinea, and Swaziland. By distributing culturally appropriate food packages one week before the start of Ramadan, we aim to empower families to focus on spiritual observances and community celebrations during the holy month.

Objectives

1. Distribute culturally appropriate food packagesto 300 families, ensuring sufficient and nutritious meals for suhoor (pre-dawn meal) and iftar (breakfast) throughout Ramadan.
2. Alleviate food insecurityand improve nutritional intake for vulnerable families.
3. Promote community spirit and shared experienceby facilitating gatherings and celebrations during Ramadan.

Target communities: We will collaborate with local organizations in each country to identify and reach the most vulnerable families, including:

• Low-income households
• Families with young children or elderly members
• Individuals with disabilities
• Refugees and internally displaced persons

From Fast to Feast: Celebrating Ramadan Together offers a unique opportunity to demonstrate compassion and support for vulnerable communities during a significant religious period. By joining hands with us, you can make a tangible difference in the lives of those in need, enabling them to fully experience the blessings and festivities of Ramadan.
