Sri Lanka | RR Foundation successfully completed its Ramadhan Food Pack Distribution 2024, reaching out to hundreds of struggling families in various districts across Sri Lanka. This humanitarian effort aimed to support those affected by poverty and recent floods, ensuring they had the essential food supplies to observe the holy month of Ramadhan with dignity.

Reaching the Most Vulnerable

The campaign covered four major districts – Trincomalee, Badulla, Kurunegala, and Kalutara, where many families face economic hardship. The beneficiaries were carefully selected through an online application process on the foundation’s website, followed by verification with the Grama Sevaka (GS) officers of the respective GN Divisions.

This initiative was particularly crucial as many families are still recovering from devastating floods that destroyed homes and livelihoods. The rising cost of living and economic challenges have made it even harder for underprivileged families to afford basic food necessities.

Procurement & Distribution Process

To ensure that beneficiaries received locally suitable food items, RR Foundation transferred funds to its district-level volunteer teams, who procured and distributed the food packs directly to the needy families. The food packs included rice, flour, sugar, lentils, milk powder, and other essential goods, tailored to the dietary needs of each community.

The distribution was carried out efficiently with the help of dedicated volunteers, who worked tirelessly to deliver food packs to deserving families, including widows, orphans, and elderly individuals.

Impact & Gratitude

Speaking about the success of the campaign, Rizwan Ceylani, a representative from RR Foundation, stated:

“This initiative has brought relief to many families who were struggling to put food on the table. The overwhelming support from our donors and volunteers has made this possible. Seeing the smiles of gratitude from these families reminds us why we continue our mission of humanitarian aid.”

The recipients expressed their heartfelt appreciation, with many stating that these food packs brought them hope and relief during a difficult time.

Looking Ahead: Food Pack Campaign 2025

Following the success of this year’s campaign, RR Foundation is already preparing for its Food Pack Campaign 2025. The organization aims to expand its reach, helping even more families affected by poverty, natural disasters, and economic hardship.
