Sayed Shaaban, 42, who used to work in a cafe, said for him the pandemic is not just a health scare but a crushing blow to his already precarious livelihood.
One third of Egypt's population of more than 100 million lives in poverty, surviving on about $1.50 or less a day. Shaaban, a father of two young children from Salam City, has been housebound since his local"baladi" cafe was shuttered."I wouldn't have come here if I wasn't in need." EFB director Mohsen Sarhan said his charity is working to deliver 10,000 food parcels a day, containing staples such as rice, pasta, oil, sugar and canned beef -- far less than what is needed by the hundreds of thousands of struggling families.
EFB is committed to shipping out an initial lot of 500,000 food cartons throughout Egypt's 27 governorates with around 5,000 charities distributing the parcels.
