The "Feed the Fasting" programme is a way our donors can help the hungry through Street Child’s 100% donation policy during the holy month of Ramadan. This programme is tailored to provide healthy and nutritious halal food for Iftar and Suhoor to the most vulnerable families across Somalia, Afghanistan and Pakistan.

We are providing fit-for-purpose, nutritious and healthy food items to last throughout the entire month of Ramadan. This will include some of the following components, which will vary slightly from region to region.

·       Flour

·       Rice

·       Yellow lentils

·       White lentils

·       Cooking Oil

·       Beans

·       Tomato Paste

·       Salt

·       Sugar

·       Green Tea

·       Milk Packs

·       Dates

·       Jam

·       Cream

The cost to feed one fasting person per month throughout the entire month of Ramadan is only £10. This is equivalent to buying three coffees during a typical day in the UK.

Street Child’s in-country team will do an initial assessment to identify the most vulnerable and eligible households for the Iftar food packages. These will then be delivered and distributed in partnership with community committees and members from local administration.

Street Child have already allocated funding to our field offices across Somalia, Afghanistan and Pakistan to implement the Feed the Fasting programme. The more we raise, the bigger the impact we can have and therefore we will send funding as it is donated by our supporters.

As a result of food insecurity, floods, recurrent droughts, ramifications of Covid 19, inflation and the cost of living crisis, families across Somalia, Afghanistan and Pakistan are in dire need of food assistance to be able to sustain themselves during the holy month of Ramadan.

Street Child’s 100% donation policy will enable us to maximise essential food items to last an entire month, which is tailored to provide healthy and nutritious halal food for Iftar and Suhoor to families across Somalia, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
