Egyptian Food Bank continues to provide vulnerable families across Egypt with essential food supplies through our Monthly Feeding Program.
This program ensures that families who struggle with food insecurity—especially widowed mothers, the elderly, and individuals with chronic illnesses—receive a box of dry food items every month. Each food box is designed to cover the basic nutritional needs of a family for up to four weeks, helping them live with dignity and security.
Key Achievements this Period:
Over 3M families reached with monthly food boxes.
Food boxes contained staple items such as rice, pasta, lentils, beans, sugar, oil, and tea.
Priority was given to households led by women, the elderly, and families with no steady income.
Distribution was carried out in coordination with local NGOs and community partners to ensure fairness and transparency.
Impact:
The program has significantly reduced the burden of hunger for thousands of households. Many families reported that the monthly box not only secures daily meals but also allows them to allocate limited income toward other pressing needs such as education, healthcare, and utilities.
With continued donor support, we aim to expand the program to reach even more families in underserved rural areas, and to enhance the nutritional value of each box by including fortified and protein-rich items.
Your contribution is making a real difference in the lives of vulnerable Egyptians. On behalf of the families we serve, we sincerely thank you.
