Feed Hope: Ramadan 2025 Initiative

Feed Hope: Ramadan Initiative Report

Date: 26 March 2025

Location: Multiple regions across Nepal

Total Food Packets Distributed: 1,625

This Ramadan, through the Feed Hope Initiative, we successfully distributed food relief to 1,625 families, ensuring they had access to essential items for Iftar and Suhoor. This was made possible through the collective efforts of international charities, local partners, and generous donors like you.

1. Overview of the Distribution
   • Key Distribution Locations

The food packs were distributed across various regions in Nepal, prioritizing areas where families struggle with food insecurity. These included:

Sunsari District (Itahari, Dharan, Inaruwa, etc.)

(Biratnagar and nearby villages)

Other rural areas with vulnerable populations

1. Beneficiary Selection
   • Families were selected based on:
     • Economic hardship (low-income families, daily wage laborers)
     • Widows and orphans
     • Elderly individuals without support
     • Persons with disabilities
     • Refugee communities

A total of approximately 9750+ individuals benefited from the distribution.

1. Food Pack Contents

Each Ramadan Food Pack was carefully prepared to provide essential nutrition for a family of 5-7 members. The packs included:

• 25 kg Rice
• 5 kg Flour
• 3 kg Lentils
• 2 L Cooking Oil
• 1 kg Sugar
• 500g Dates
• 1 kg Salt & Spices
• 3 kg Popcorn rice

And More

1. Impact & Beneficiary Feedback:
   • Many recipients expressed immense gratitude, as rising food costs have made it difficult for families to afford basic necessities.
   • Widows and elderly individuals, often overlooked in aid distributions, were particularly appreciative of the timely support.
   • Families with young children shared how the food packs helped them observe Ramadan with dignity.
   • Testimonial from a Beneficiary:
