Charities start securing funds to support the vulnerable this Ramadan

AMMAN — Charities have started collecting funds to buy and distribute necessities for vulnerable families before the holy month of Ramadan. 

This year, the first day of Ramadan, during which Muslims observe dawn-to-dusk fasting, is expected to fall in the first week of April. 

Muslims all over the world prepare for this month in advance and families usually get together for iftar (fast breaking meal), which increases demand for food.
