This Ramadan, more than 15 Mövenpick hotels across the Middle East and North Africa will be participating in “A Kilo of Kindness” campaign that combines the public’s generosity with the needs of the less fortunate.
Each Mövenpick property will be supporting a special charity that will benefit from donated non-perishable food items, which people and organizations are encouraged to drop off at the lobbies of the participating hotels.
The requested food items include canned foods: tuna, soup, fruit and vegetables; dry food: rice, beans, oats, pasta, cereals, flour, powdered milk, and tea; non-glass packaged food: olive oil, canola oil, and honey; and baby food: milk formula, and infant cereal.
