[April and May 2021] LSO had implemented 2021 Ramadan Feed the Fasting in Cambodia in the time of COVID-19 pandemic and some area of Cambodia, especially Phnom Penh city, had been lockdown. LSO team and relevant stakeholders had tried hard and with the blessing from Allah swt we could achieve this project effectively and help the poor Muslim family in Ramadan as well as during the hard time of COVID-19.
We implemented this project in 6 city/provinces. We distributed 981 Ramadan Food Vouchers to Muslim poor families which were selected according the selection criteria in collaboration with local authorities. We also had selected vendors in their areas so that they could easily redeem the vouchers and choose the food they need at the shops. We also had transferred Ramadan Cash to 19 poor Muslim families (18 are orphans) instead of giving them Ramadan Food Voucher due to they stay far and they need help during Ramadan and Covid-19 pandemic. As the result, the project could help about 4,501 Muslim people (direct and indirect).
