Car service Careem distributes food donations for free in Dubai

During the month of Ramadan, the VTC Careem service plays the solidarity card in Dubai by delivering food donations to food banks in the United Arab Emirates.

In the spirit of the month of Ramadan, Dubai residents are traditionally invited to give food to those in need in their communities through the initiative of the United Arab Emirates Food Bank.

This year, to facilitate this donation, Careem car service collects, during the holy month, donations of fresh meals prepared at home as well as portions of takeaway meals and delivers them free of charge to the refrigerators of Emirian food banks scattered throughout the city of Dubai.
