Annual Food Drive: 500 Food Packs Prepared for Families in Need
August 7, 2026 · 3 min read
Every year, our team organises a community food drive: food packs are assembled by volunteers and delivered directly to families in need, hand to hand, with dignity.
What goes into a food pack
- Rice, flour and cooking oil for a month
- Dates, lentils and canned essentials
- Tea, sugar and salt
Each pack costs around $10 to assemble and feeds a family for weeks. Every stage — purchasing, packing and distribution — is carried out by our own team and documented with photos.
Why direct distribution matters
The Prophet ﷺ said: "The best charity is that given when one is healthy and reluctant to part with wealth." We believe the second best is charity you can *see* — which is why every drive is photographed and reported here, so you know exactly where your giving goes.
