The 'UAE Stands with Lebanon' donation drive continues this weekend, with an aid packing and collection event scheduled in Fujairah. Over the past few weeks, numerous UAE residents have gathered to provide relief supplies and assist in packing care boxes for the Lebanese people, who are enduring the severe impact of the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah conflict.
A significant number of volunteers participated in the donation drive events held earlier this month in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah. Initially planned to conclude on October 21, the campaign has been extended due to the overwhelming response from residents.
On Sunday, October 27, the 'UAE Stands with Lebanon' event will take place in Fujairah. Those interested in donating or volunteering can visit: Al Bustan Hall, Fujairah from 3pm to 7pm. Volunteers can also register online through the volunteers.ae platform and other relevant entities in the country.
Donations can be channeled through the Emirates Red Crescent's (ERC) branch in Fujairah. Cash donations can be made via the smart applications of Emirati donor institutions, the ERC website and applications, or through its official accounts.
With the support of the community and humanitarian organizations worldwide, the UAE has already dispatched over a dozen aircraft loaded with tonnes of relief supplies for Lebanon.
