Dubai [UAE], March 28: David and Goliath Farms, an innovator in sustainable and hydroponic agriculture, is proud to announce its substantial contribution to the holy month of Ramadan by donating over 6+ tons of fresh, nutritious vegetables. This bountiful sponsorship was part of a heartfelt collaboration with Al Taya Art and Films, contributing to the "1 Billion Meals Endowment" campaign, in partnership with the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives Foundation, UAE Food Bank, Dubai Municipality and others.
Beyond the generous donation, the Chairman of David and Goliath Farms, Dr. Lal Bhatia, personified the farm's ethos of active engagement by volunteering as a chef to cook meals. Dr. Bhatia himself immersed in the benevolent efforts, dedicating twelve arduous hours to shop and cook alongside other volunteers. His hands-on approach underlines his profound message: According to Dr. Bhatia, "It's very easy to donate if you have the means, but taking out the time to shop for the ingredients and spend twelve hours cooking, with the help of other volunteers, is what truly makes a difference."

Targeted to alleviate hunger across a multitude of countries during the holy month and further, this initiative reflects the far-reaching impact envisioned by the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives Foundation.
