Breaking Guinness relief records













Last month, the Tahya Misr fund's campaign "We Share for Tomorrow“ organised a humanitarian convoy aimed at providing food, winter clothes, and blankets for a million families.

The campaign used its fleet of trucks and young volunteers to deliver necessities to families across the country, distributing products worth LE1 billion, making it the biggest relief convoy in the world, according to Guinness World Records.

On 20 November, the campaign started its tour, reaching the borders of the nation while distributing packages which include dry food and 2,000 tonnes of chicken, making it the largest number of chickens donated in history.

The fund also claimed the record for the largest parade of trucks used in the campaign as 480 such vehicles were used to distribute the packages to families around the country, beating the previous record of 416. Tahya Misr was awarded the record certificates by Ahmed Makled, CEO of the Coordinating Office of Guinness Book of Records.
