أَطْلَقَتْ هَيْئَةُ تَنْمِيَةِ الْمُجْتَمَعِ فِي دُبَيٍّ النُّسْخَةَ الثَّانِيَةَ مِنْ مُبَادَرَةِ «خَرَايِفِ الرُّطَبِ». تَهْدِفُ الْمُبَادَرَةُ إِلَى تَوْزِيعِ صَنَادِيقِ الرُّطَبِ عَلَى أَكْثَرَ مِنْ خَمْسَةِ آلَافِ أُسْرَةٍ وَفِئَاتٍ أُخْرَى.

يَأْتِي الرُّطَبُ مِنْ مَزَارِعَ وَطَنِيَّةٍ، وَيُشَارِكُ فِي الْعَمَلِ أَلْفُ مُتَطَوِّعٍ إِمَارَاتِيٍّ. يُوَزِّعُ الْمُتَطَوِّعُونَ الصَّنَادِيقَ فِي خَمْسَةِ مَجَالِسَ مُجْتَمَعِيَّةٍ فِي دُبَيٍّ، بَيْنَ ٢٠ وَ٢٤ يُولْيُو.

وَتُقَدِّمُ الْمُبَادَرَةُ أَنْشِطَةً عَنِ النَّخْلَةِ وَمَكَانَتِهَا فِي الثَّقَافَةِ الْإِمَارَاتِيَّةِ. كَمَا تُشَجِّعُ النَّاسَ عَلَى الْعَطَاءِ، وَعَلَى اسْتِخْدَامِ الْمَحْصُولِ الْمَحَلِّيِّ بِطَرِيقَةٍ جَيِّدَةٍ. وَتَجْمَعُ الْفِكْرَةُ بَيْنَ التُّرَاثِ وَالْعَمَلِ التَّطَوُّعِيِّ.

Dubai Initiative Distributes Fresh Dates to More Than 5,000 Families

Dubai’s Community Development Authority launched the second edition of the “Kharayef Al Rutab” initiative. The initiative aims to distribute boxes of fresh dates to more than 5,000 families and other groups.

The fresh dates come from national farms, and 1,000 Emirati volunteers are taking part. The volunteers are distributing the boxes at five community councils in Dubai between July 20 and 24.

The initiative also offers activities about the date palm and its place in Emirati culture. It encourages people to give and to make good use of local produce. The idea brings together heritage and volunteer work.
