Spreading Ramadan Cheer to Families in Need in Mafraq

22 March 2024

Desert Bloom, in collaboration with URI-MENA (United Religions Initiative - Middle East and North Africa) and its CCs, partnered with Qudorat in Mafraq to bring joy and essential aid to families in need this Ramadan.

This initiative went beyond mere distribution. It provided a valuable opportunity for Desert Bloom to immerse themselves in Qudorat's impactful work. The visit included exploring their new facilities, learning about their programs and beneficiaries, and interacting with their dedicated team members. Together, they united efforts to distribute vital resources like clothing and food packages, ensuring a brighter Ramadan for many.

A highlight of the visit was a powerful dialogue with twelve remarkable young women from Qudorat CC. These women, the backbone of the organization, manage logistics, communication, and planning. The discussion explored a range of topics, including volunteerism awareness, challenges faced by women in Mafraq, and the impact of the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The women's resilience and strength were evident as they shared how their work and personal lives have been affected. This insightful exchange fostered a deeper understanding of their experiences and the crucial role they play in Qudorat CC's success.

Desert Bloom extends its heartfelt gratitude to Qudorat CC for their warm hospitality and meticulous preparation. Their thoughtful sorting of clothes by family size and creation of food packages ensured each family received the most useful items for their needs.
