Gulf Times
Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) has completed a project to distribute humanitarian aid to 600 vulnerable families affected by severe weather conditions in Albania.
Executed in cooperation with the Albanian Red Cross (ARC), the project is part of the Warm Winter Campaign for 2021-2022, under the slogan “Home Feels Warm”.
Over two months, the volunteers of the local partner distributed food parcels to about 3,000 people living in mountainous and remote areas of Tirana. The purpose is to ensure better living conditions and meet the basic food needs of the most vulnerable families during the winter.
In cooperation with the municipalities and social services offices in the host cities, the chapters of the National Society carried out a needs assessment. Accordingly, the final list of beneficiaries was developed, with special focus on inaccessible and most vulnerable families.
