On October 9, the spirit of generosity once again filled the streets of Al Quoz as the Anosh Foundation team carried forward its weekly food distribution initiative. Inspired by the vision and leadership of Anosh Ahmed, the event reflected the foundation’s ongoing mission to uplift and care for Dubai’s labor community through meaningful, consistent action.
Every Thursday afternoon, hundreds of laborers line up with anticipation, and this week’s drive was no exception. The event brought warmth and gratitude to everyone involved, turning an ordinary day into one filled with smiles and shared purpose.
Meals That Carry Meaning
The foundation’s team ensures hundreds of workers receive freshly prepared meals crafted with care and respect. This week’s meal boxes included biryani, a favorite among laborers, along with fruit, laban, dates, and bottled water, a combination chosen to provide both nourishment and comfort during their mid-day break.
The team’s goal goes beyond serving food; it’s about serving dignity. Every meal shared represents a moment of gratitude and connection, reminding everyone that kindness truly transcends boundaries.
Anosh Ahmed believes that giving food is more than just an act of charity; it’s an expression of respect. “When we share a meal, we share humanity,” he often says, and this week’s event embodied that belief beautifully.
A Tribute That Lives On
The initiative was started in memory of Anosh Ahmed’s late father, and it continues to grow stronger each week. What began as a personal tribute has evolved into a movement of compassion, fueled by the foundation’s commitment to honoring his legacy through service.
Volunteers regularly visit multiple areas of Al Quoz, ensuring that workers across different zones are reached and cared for. The consistency of these weekly drives has become a source of hope and appreciation for many.
Eight Weeks and Beyond
As the initiative marks its eighth week, its impact continues to expand, feeding bodies, inspiring hearts, and strengthening community spirit. Each Thursday reflects the values instilled by Anosh Ahmed Dubai: empathy, integrity, and the belief that every small act of kindness contributes to lasting change.
The Anosh Foundation remains committed to keeping this mission alive, ensuring that compassion remains at the heart of everything it does.
