For the last two years during Ramadan, Al-Zahoor Welfare Foundation has been feeding the poor iftar in Bangladesh. Our doors at the Al-Zahoor Academy have been open to any one who turns up for both iftar and suhoor and we have been giving them home cooked meals. Furthermore, approximately 500 people were fed iftar every night at the Rohingya Refugee camps.

But with lockdown in Bangladesh due to Covid-19, we have closed down the Al-Zahoor Academy and the teachers have been sent home on full pay. This year's Ramadan is going to be very different. The poor will face an even harder struggle than normal to acquire food and the situation is very desperate.

We cannot have iftar gatherings this year, so we have decided to distribute staple food products instead to the houses of the poor. Each food package will consist of the following items and will feed an average family for approximately 5 days:

The cost of each food package is £12.

- Rice 5kg

- Lentils 1kg

- Potatoes 2kg

- Rice flakes 2kg

- Chickpeas 1kg

- Vermicilli 500g

- Onions- 2kg

- Sugar 1kg

- Oil 1 litre

- Salt

- Garlic

- Mixed Spices

- Soap and detergent
