Tkiyet Um Ali launched a campaign, in the Holy Month of Ramadan, titled “Break the Fasting of a Decent Family at their Home”. GM of Tkiyet Um Ali, Mahmoud Al Shareef, was hosted at the Program “Ammani Movement” at Hawa Amman FM (105.9), to talk about the activities of Tkiyet Um Ali in the Holy Month of Ramadan, and said: “The idea of launching the campaign (Break the Fasting of a Decent Family at their Hpuse), came up from the experiences we had in Ramadan tents and charity banquets we prepare every year, especially that there are many needy and poor people who feel embarrassed to go and frequent those tents; therefore, this year we provide them with the meals at their households”.
He added “Tkiyet Um Ali offers food products and humanitarian services, based on the great Islamic values, and it is considered the first in the Middle East specialized in combating hunger. This charity society was founded by HRH princess Haya as a tribute to her mother, late Queen Alia, the society targets the poor and the needy who cannot get their day to day needs. Hence, the utmost priority is to help these segments in Ramadan, and the latest campaign serves all the poor in the Kingdom’s villages and governorates, even the remote ones”.
Al Shareef pointed out that they are not only using the lists and tables of the enlisted families, but they are also adopting a sensory detection and inclusive field survey to find the families and bring them fresh hot food in the breakfast time. What distinguishes the organizational society “Tkiyet Um Ali”, is that it is directed upon the latest international criteria of management, based on transparency, clarity, and accuracy. To ensure this accuracy, the Society works in cooperation with many specialized parties, such as the National Aid Fund, Ministry of Development, the Coordination Commission of Social Solidarity, Income Tax Department, and many other charity societies.
“Break the Fasting of a Decent Family” campaign includes hot Iftar meals that daily reach to more than 14,000 poor families in the Kingdom, using well equipped buses especially assigned for this purpose, and we hope the families find the meals good, healthy, and tasty, and at least contain 7 elements, rice, meat, chicken, vegetable, juices, and fruits, all is contributed through generous donations, directly oriented to support decent families.
Al Shareef stated that there are many Ramadan campaigns initiated by Tkiyet Um Ali, like “Haya ‘Ala Al Zakat”, to orient people on this crucial duty, Al Zakat, and “Al Kaffarat” Campaign, which targets the people who have expiations for any reason. An officer from Tkiyet Um Ali goes to the houses of these people, calculates the expiations’ rate which is to be distributed to the poor and needy as meals.
“Mounet Ramadan” Campaign is an integrated food package that meets the needs of poor families for one whole month.
In closing his speech, Al Shareef called on the citizens and good people to make use of this month by doing good deeds through donations and giveaways that make poor families happy and satisfied. Tkiyet Um Ali was founded for this reason and regularly offers these services by calling on the phone number 4916800.
