Misr El-Kheir added that the Emirates NBD has also supported the establishment of Ramadan tents to provide Iftar for 18,000 fasting persons and distributed 1,120 Ramadan boxes. It has also helped the foundation to provide a headquarters for packing the boxes, as a volunteering team from the bank took it upon itself to do this.
