Building Partnerships for Community Impact
This year, Subha entered into a one-year partnership with AlOula, the Kingdom’s first non-profit organization with a history of over 60 years in community development. Dania Al-Maeena, CEO of AlOula, commended the efforts of the Subha community in distributing iftar meals to beneficiaries across Jeddah during the holy month.
A Journey of Giving Back
Subha was established three years ago as a collaborative effort between friends and family. Through initiatives like Iftar Saem, the organization has provided essential support to thousands of families in need. Sanad Hourani emphasized the rewarding experience of helping others and the positive impact it has had on the community.
Empowering Young Adults for Change
Subha takes a unique approach to charity by engaging young adults in volunteer work and community service. The organization aims to create a culture of giving and compassion among the youth of Jeddah through various initiatives and events.
Expanding Horizons for a Brighter Future
As Subha looks towards the future, they plan to extend their reach beyond the holy month of Ramadan. By involving influencers and utilizing online platforms for donation collection, the organization hopes to continue making a difference in the lives of those in need.
Spreading Joy and Nourishment
Through collaborations with local businesses, Subha and AlOula provide nutritious iftar meals to underserved communities in Jeddah. The initiative has received gratitude from beneficiaries like Yousef Mohammed Abdulrahman, who expressed his appreciation for the support during Ramadan.
Supporting the Community Through Generosity
Subha relies on donations and community support to sustain its charitable activities. With the help of volunteers and generous donors, the organization continues to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.
For those interested in contributing, donations can be made through AlOula’s website to support individuals in need during Ramadan and Eid.
