Food bank to be launched soon in Bahrain
Manama : A non-profit food bank could soon be established in Bahrain to encourage social giving and reduce waste and reach out to needy people. Labour and Social Development Minister Jameel bin Mohammed Ali Humaidan received Ibrahim Al-Daisi, chairman and founder of Bahrain Emdad Society (Bahrain Food Bank).
Hypermarkets would be approached to donate an annual quantity of the food products they sell, so as to be distributed to needy families across the country.
Once established, the charity society would also collect extra food from restaurants and bakeries, as well as unused food after big ceremonies and distribute it in a healthy and decent way so that needy people are benefitted.
