| Desc | Food, Clothing, and Well-Being - Zakat Foundation of America provides food packages, fresh meat, clothing, blankets, candy and toys to communities often coinciding with times with Islamic significance for traditions of charity and justice. Donors are eager to provide food packages for families fasting during Ramadan to ensure families have proper nutrients. At the end of fasting, we provide fresh meat to improve nutrition, often the only meat communities have all year. We work towards food security through sustainable agricultural programs such as animal husbandry, greenhouse gardening, and sesame farming. Jackets, blankets, and clothing ensure communities can survive harsh rain and winter seasons. Occassionally, we provide children in these communities with holiday gifts such as toys and candy to include them in celebrations and to provide a sense of security, hope, and well-being. This work aligned with Sustainable Development Goals 2: Zero Hunger and we refer to the work as "seasonal programs." | Desc |
