Her Highness Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairperson of the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority and Member of the Dubai Council, joined volunteers on Saturday to help with the relief packaging at Dubai's 'Tarahum for Gaza' campaign centre.
A total of 2,600 volunteers helped prepare more than 7,500 relief packages for the relief campaign to support and stand in solidarity with Palestinians suffering from the current conflict in Gaza.
Organised at Qalaat Alremaal Events in Dubai, the community event, overseen by Dubai Cares, saw volunteers, including citizens and residents of all ages and nationalities volunteer their time to prepare food and relief kits.
Initiated last week, the 'Tarahum for Gaza' campaign is supervised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in cooperation with the Emirates Red Crescent Authority and the World Food Programme, in coordination with the Ministry of Community Development. It's also supported by 20 relief and humanitarian organisations.
The campaign will host two events on Sunday, one at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) under the supervision of the UAE Red Crescent; and the second at Sharjah Expo Centre under the supervision of Sharjah Charity.
