Senator Street, Philabundance y Shoprite organizan una campaña de recogida de alimentos de 30 días de duración durante el Ramadán que alimentará a 6.000 personas.
The Driving Hunger Away During Ramadan initiative will feed 200 people a day at community spaces throughout Philadelphia for 30 days from the beginning of Ramadan on Abril 13 to Mayo 12. Pandemic related unemployment has been disproportionately higher among low-income communities. Food insecurity in the Philadelphia region rose sharply due to the pandemic, with many of Philabundance’s agencies reporting a 60 percent increase in the number of clients they serve.
Other key sponsors for this initiative include Shoprite Owned & Operated by the Brown’s Family, Keystone First, Philadelphia Ramadan & Eid Fund, Aetna, Dedicated Senior Medical Center, and Temple University Office of Community Affairs.
