Ajman University Partners with Hyundai Motors, Al Ihsan Charity to launch ‘Mobility for Food Bank’

Ajman University, along with Al Ihsan Charity, has signed up as a Strategic Partner in Hyundai Motor Company’s ‘Mobility for Food Bank’ Initiative, to provide food packages to underprivileged communities in the UAE during the holy month of Ramadan.

The initiative, a continuous campaign that began in Ramadan, aims to reach 700 beneficiaries in the rural areas of Ajman.

As a strategic partner in this initiative, Ajman University organized the packaging of food boxes on its campus. Giving a head start to the campaign, AU launched a design competition on February 20 inviting its students to submit creative designs for the food box. 25 impressive entries were received, of which three artworks emerged as finalists and the winning students were awarded iPads and certificates. Of the three winning designs, one was chosen as the final design for the food box.

More than 150 AU students have registered as volunteers for the campaign. They will help in packaging the boxes inside the University Hall and will also assist in delivering the packages to the underprivileged families.

“As a leading university in the UAE in making societal impact, Ajman University is committed to creating meaningful changes that transcend individual lives and leaves a lasting legacy of progress for future generations. Since 1988, we have been educating more than 40000 young men and women with responsible citizenship skills who have been making a transformational impact in different parts of the world,” said Dr. Karim Seghir, Chancellor of Ajman University.

“We are proud to partner with Hyundai and Al Ihsan Charity in this noble endeavor which will not only bring some relief to underprivileged families this Ramadan, but also foster the spirit of giving and a heightened sense of social responsibility among AU students,” he added.
