Launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, the '1 Billion Meals Endownment' campaign has reached Dhs 750 million within 20 days.
The campaign aims to provide food to those in need all over the world, and was launched at the beginning of the Holy Month of Ramadan.
Over 120,000 individuals and companies have contributed towards raising money for the less fortunate.
The campaign is a follow-up and extension to the first campaign '10 Million Meals' launched in 2020, with the '100 Million Meals' campaign held in 2021.
In 2022, over 50 countries received meals as part of the '1 Billion Meals' campaign launched that year.
