Qatar Charity (QC), as part of its ‘Endless Giving’ campaign, (QC) has been organising group Iftars for university students, boarding school students, and worshippers at mosques in Ghana since the beginning of Ramadan, a statement said.
Additionally, food packages containing essential supplies are distributed to needy families. It is anticipated that the number of beneficiaries from the ‘Feed the Fasting’ project in Ghana will exceed 60,000.
The project implementation continues across 56 distribution centres in the Greater Accra, Northern, Ashanti, and Eastern regions. A total of 700 families benefit from the food baskets. During the holy month, QC’s Ghana Office also implements the Zakat al-Fitr and Eid Clothing Distribution projects for sponsored orphans.
Salifu Yahaya Dangma, president of the Muslim Students Association at the University of Ghana, expressed gratitude to QC for its support to Ghanaian students by providing exceptional Iftar meals at the university dormitories since the beginning of Ramadan.
He indicated that this assistance not only helps the students observe fasting but also enables them to focus on their academic pursuits. He also highlighted QC's support for underprivileged students through scholarships that cover tuition fees to build their future.
The Imam of a mosque in Accra clarified that a significant number of members of the Muslim community in the neighbourhood benefit from the Iftar meals provided by QC during Ramadan.
At the Iftar meal distribution center in Kumasi, a city in Ghana, several students expressed their satisfaction with the delicious Iftar meals provided by QC. Abu Bakr Salatu Ziba, director of Force Senior High Technical School, expressed his delight at the presence of QC's team and their support for fasting students residing in the school's dormitory through the distribution of Iftar meals.
