Qatar Charity Eid project brings cheer to people in Sudan, Chad
Tribune News Network Doha With the generous support of donors in Qatar, Qatar Charity's (QC) annual Eid Al Adha initiative in Sudan and Chad, reached the most vulnerable communities through the distribution of Udhiyah. The campaign was part of Qatar Charity's broader seasonal efforts for 2025 (1446 AH) to bring hope and joy to those most in need around the world. In Sudan, the initiative focused on regions affected by conflict and displacement. Working hand in hand with local authorities and humanitarian partners, Qatar Charity distributed meat from 160 Udhiyah to more than 1,600 beneficiaries primarily internally displaced persons, refugees, and impoverished families. Field teams from Qatar Charity visited the distribution points, taking part in the process and witnessing firsthand the impact of the campaign. Joy was evident on the faces of recipients who welcomed the aid with gratitude and warm prayers for the people of Qatar. Local officials praised the charity's transparent and organized approach, which ensures that help reaches those who need it most. Meanwhile in Chad, Qatar Charity implemented the project across several regions including the capital, N'Djamena. The campaign benefited over 17,640 individuals through the distribution of 105,840 kilograms of meat, sourced from 1,776 Udhiyah. Local partners and officials in Chad commended the initiative, noting its deep impact on underserved communities and its role in bringing a sense of dignity and joy during Eid. For many of the beneficiaries, especially those in refugee camps or impoverished neighbourhoods, this year's Eid was unlike any other. The gift of meat, which many families had not tasted for months, turned their Eid into a moment of celebration. One refugee in Chad expressed his gratitude, saying: 'I never expected we'd have meat this Eid. This is a blessing from God, and we thank the people of Qatar for remembering us.' Local leaders described the campaign as a powerful message of solidarity from Qatar, reflecting the values of compassion, generosity, and shared humanity. Through this initiative, Qatar Charity once again affirmed its commitment to supporting vulnerable communities around the world not just with aid, but with hope.
