Ramadan Month 100,000 Family Food Package Project

1. Project Purpose

On the occasion of its 30th anniversary, the Deniz Feneri Association is launching a comprehensive social responsibility project aimed at transforming the spiritual atmosphere of Ramadan into social solidarity. Within the scope of this project, the goal is to deliver Ramadan aid packages designed to meet basic needs for an entire month to 100,000 families in need across Turkey throughout the month of Ramadan.

The project aims not only to provide food and hygiene support but also to strengthen the culture of cooperation, promote the spirit of sharing inherent in Ramadan, increase the participation of individual and corporate donors in charitable activities, and create a collective movement of kindness nationwide.

Through the efforts carried out in this context, social awareness will be raised, and families in need will be enabled to spend the month of Ramadan in a more peaceful and secure manner.

2. Project Goals

The project aims to achieve the following objectives:

• To deliver Ramadan aid packages to 100,000 families in need across Turkey.

• To establish a powerful aid and solidarity network simultaneously across all 81 provinces.

• To ensure continuous engagement on social media and digital platforms throughout the 30 days of Ramadan.

• To create a collective movement of kindness in collaboration with artists, academics, media members, NGOs, and business world representatives.

• To strengthen sustainable partnerships with both corporate and individual donors.

3. Project Scope

Within the scope of the project, aid packages consisting of food and hygiene products will be prepared and distributed throughout Turkey during the month of Ramadan.

The distribution process is based on on-site visits to families identified through social evaluations conducted by field teams. A widespread distribution network will be established nationwide, covering city centers, districts, and rural areas.

The project is not limited to aid distribution; it will also be conducted as a social responsibility campaign that generates high visibility and awareness. In this regard, it aims to reach large audiences with the contributions of artists, social media content creators, academics, journalists, and non-governmental organizations.

4. Ramadan Aid Package Content

The prepared Ramadan aid packages are planned to meet the basic needs of a family for the entire month of Ramadan. The packages include:

• Essential food products

• Cleaning and hygiene materials

• Treats for children (such as chocolate, biscuits, etc.)

Through this content, while supporting the daily living needs of households, it is also intended for children to share in the spiritual and social joy of Ramadan.

5. Implementation Method and Process Management

5.1 Social Evaluation and Family Selection

As a result of field studies and social evaluations conducted across Turkey, families in genuine need are meticulously identified. Justice, transparency, and the priority of needs are taken as the basis for the family selection process.

5.2 Logistics and Distribution

Prepared aid packages are delivered directly and on-site through local teams, volunteers, and representative offices. In areas with difficult access, regional teams are assigned to ensure the uninterrupted execution of the distribution process.
