Ramadan at Aqsa Association is a profound humanitarian occasion that embodies the values of compassion and solidarity. The association launches a series of charitable initiatives aimed at alleviating the suffering of displaced and affected families in the Gaza Strip. Amid a harsh reality marked by poverty, displacement, and food insecurity, the association strives to transform Ramadan into a space for dignity and hope—not merely a season of seasonal giving.
The most prominent of these initiatives is the “Feed the Fasting” campaign, through which thousands of hot meals are prepared and distributed daily to families in need. The campaign is carried out via field kitchens under the supervision of specialized teams to ensure quality and hygiene. Meals are delivered to shelters and impoverished areas in a manner that preserves dignity and reinforces a spirit of solidarity.
Alongside the ready-to-eat meals, the association also distributes comprehensive food parcels containing essential items that allow families to prepare their own meals throughout the month. The association also oversees the distribution of zakat, charitable donations, and Zakat al-Fitr to eligible families—including orphans, widows, and low-income households—ensuring fair distribution and meaningful impact.
Additionally, the association organizes communal iftars on selected Ramadan nights, including a notable gathering on the 29th night, which brought together hundreds of families in a warm, spiritual atmosphere. These events provide more than just food—they foster community bonds and offer moments of comfort and belonging in the midst of hardship.
Through its Ramadan initiatives, Aqsa Association reaffirms its ongoing commitment to serving humanity—not only during the holy month but throughout the year. Its programs are not temporary responses but part of a broader humanitarian vision that seeks to uphold dignity, instill a culture of giving, and establish solidarity as a deeply rooted value in the face of adversity.
