MOGADISHU, SOMALIA April 27, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently delivered 930 food packages that provided 329,220 meals to impoverished families in the Mudug region of Somalia.

The food package distribution is part of Baitulmaal’s emergency drought response in East Africa. Somalia and Kenya in particular have been severely impacted by drought, leading to loss of livestock and livelihoods. The water emergency has lead to higher rates of food insecurity in the region, according to Baitulmaal program director Elizabeth Sohail.

“Many families lost entire herds of animals and with them, sources of income,” Sohail said. “Thankfully, we’ve been able to provide emergency water and food assistance especially in time for Ramadan, and we plan to continue our work here because so much more needs to be done.”

Baitulmaal delivered approximately 4 million meals to those in need around the world this past Ramadan. The charity also provides food, water, healthcare and other aid to families in East Africa. If you would like to learn more or contribute to these programs at Baitulmaal, please visit their website at Baitulmaal.org.

Baitulmaal is an international humanitarian aid organization that provides life-saving, life-sustaining and life-enriching aid to people in need around the world. With headquarters in Texas, the charity has domestic offices and representatives in California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan and New Jersey as well as international offices in Africa, South Asia and the Middle East.

ISTANBUL, TURKEY April 25, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently delivered 750 food packages that provided 247,500 Ramadan meals to refugee families living in Turkey.

Approximately 5,174 Syrian refugees living in the border town of Urfa received the food packages in time for Ramadan. According to Elizabeth Sohail, program director at Baitulmaal, many of the recipients are low-income families with vulnerable members, and many of the children are orphans. Food packages included bulgur, lentils, tomato paste, pasta, oil, tea, sugar and dates.

“It’s important to be able to provide refugee families with food that they find comfort in despite being so far from home,” Sohail said. “Having a familiar meal in a special month like Ramadan is a blessing our donors made possible.”

KARACHI, PAKISTAN April 22, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently delivered 600 food packages that provided approximately 241,200 meals to impoverished families in Pakistan during Ramadan.

More than 4,800 villagers living in the Sujawal, Mansehra and Noushero Feroze districts received the food packages in time for Ramadan. Food packages included rice, flour, sugar, lentils and canned goods. According to Baitulmaal program director Elizabeth Sohail, many of the families live in remote areas and find it increasingly difficult to procure basic necessities.

“Food availability is decreasing and prices are soaring everywhere, and this affects the poorest families the most,” Sohail said. “Our donors’ generosity enabled us to give these families food packages that last them through Ramadan.”

COX’S BAZAR, BANGLADESH April 19, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently distributed 625 Ramadan food packages that provided 162,000 meals for Rohingya refugees living in camp settlements in Bangladesh.

Families in Cox’s Bazar received a month’s worth of items such as flour, sugar, lentils and oil, basic necessities that are out of reach for many living in refugee camps. Lack of employment and education opportunities keep families struggling to escape poverty after they risked their lives to escape violence, according to Elizabeth Sohail, program director at Baitulmaal.

“Many of these families are still reeling from fires that displaced them from their homes prior to Ramadan last year,” Sohail said. “Having these food packages in time for this year’s Ramadan gives them one less thing to worry about during a month meant for gratitude and reflection.”

Baitulmaal delivered approximately 4 million meals to those in need around the world this past Ramadan. The charity also provides food, water, healthcare and other humanitarian aid to Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.

BEIRUT, LEBANON April 17, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently completed the distribution of food packages that provide 265,750 meals to families in Lebanon in time for the Ramadan season.

Recipients included 730 Syrian, Palestinian and Lebanese families that reside in Saida City, including Palestinian refugee camps, and 300 who live in Tyre City. In total, 1,030 families received food packages that contained flour, sugar, oil, pasta, canned vegetables, and other non-perishable goods. According to Elizabeth Sohail, program manager at Baitulmaal, many of these items have been out of reach for many families in Lebanon.

“Even working families struggle to purchase food because of soaring prices, let alone those who have been out of work or live in refugee camps,” Sohail said. “Our donors came through for these families and they are so grateful for their compassion.”

Baitulmaal delivered approximately 4 million meals to those in need around the world this past Ramadan. The charity also provides food, water, healthcare and other aid to people in Lebanon.
