Students at The American University in Cairo (AUC) organized one of the largest student-led community service efforts on campus this year, assembling 6,000 Ramadan food packs for families in need. The initiative, coordinated by AUC’s Office of Student Life in collaboration with 42 student organizations, nearly doubled the number of food packages prepared during last year’s campaign. Volunteers from across the university gathered to pack essential food supplies destined for underserved communities during the holy month of Ramadan. Students worked in assembly lines across campus to prepare the packages, with participants representing a wide range of academic disciplines, including several international students studying at AUC. Over time, Ramadan food packing has become a regular annual activity at AUC, drawing participation from dozens of student organizations and hundreds of volunteers.
