The Helping Handzzz Foundation, a Dearborn-based non-profit, is addressing food waste and fostering community during Ramadan, WXYZ.com reported. Volunteers collect untouched meals and distribute them to individuals experiencing homelessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The foundation, led by Nadine Daoud, provides nearly 400 meals weekly. They operate two missions: pre-iftar, which delivers meals to families in need, and post-iftar, which collects leftovers after sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volunteers gather untouched meals six nights a week, ensuring recipients receive healthy options, including protein, vegetables, rice, and drinks. Nadine’s initiative began in 2017 when she noticed food waste during Iftar at her grandmother’s home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The foundation continues its efforts beyond Ramadan, focusing on major holidays like Thanksgiving and Eid to collect and distribute leftover food. By 11:30 PM, the team wraps up another successful night of service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
