International Human Rights Commission's (IHRC) Ambassador at Large to the African Union, Abu Zein has supported this year's Ramadan with $10,000.
He also supported the month-long fasting with hundred bags of rice, gallons of cooking oil and cartons of tomato paste.
He announced the package at the residence of the National Chief Imam, Sheikh Dr Osman Sharubutu in the company of IHRC Global chairman, Dr Shahid Amin Khan, Mr Zein said the gesture forms part of IHRC Corporate Social Responsibility.
He explained that the Commission's quest is to ensure peaceful coexistence and brotherliness among all religions and societies.
"It takes somebody who has been hungry in the past to appreciate someone who needs food.
"Besides seeking the face of Allah during this holy month of Ramadan, fasting teaches us great life lessons.
"We believe these items will help the chief Imam extend his feasting at the end of the fasting period."
The IHRC Global chairman is in the country for a three-day working visit ahead of the 7th World Summit on Human Rights, scheduled from April 22 to 24 in Geneva Switzerland.
