With Ramadan less than two weeks away, the Community Development Authority (CDA) Youth Council is putting the final touches on the second edition of the 'Their Suhour On Us' initiative.

This year, the initiative aims to distribute 32,000 meals to labourers across Dubai and Umm Al Quwain.

Launched in 2017, 700 council members and volunteers distributed more than 53,000 Suhour meals to labourers across Dubai and Abu Dhabi after Taraweeh prayer throughout the Holy Month. The initial target was 20,000 meals.

Though the conservative aim for this year's meal distribution is 32,000, the council will likely surpass its 2017 figure as it has added seven additional distribution sites to the initiative as well as 300 additional volunteers.

Meals will be distributed every night at Al Quoz Mosque and meals will also be distributed for six days at seven other mosques in Deira and Bur Dubai.
