Tekeya Elmahrosa

The program is developed to meet the nutritional needs of the unprivileged people, as it plays a vital role in improving the quality of life of people who suffer from economic and social difficulties in Egypt.

Through the Tekeya Program, the Egyptian Food Bank prepares and distributes daily hot meals to needy people through EFB-equipped kitchens which are managed by our partners across Egypt’s governorates.

Simply, the Tekeya is a place that provides food to poor and needy families daily throughout the year for free.
