AMMAN, JORDAN July 23, 2021 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian relief agency, recently distributed fresh meat for 10,080 meals to families in Jordan during the Islamic holiday season of sacrifice known as Udhiyah.
Approximately 2,100 beneficiaries — including refugees, orphans, and low-income families — received portions of meat from locally-sourced sheep. The recipients lived in areas such as Amman, Irbid, Jerash, Al Zarqaa and Al Baqaa. Children also received Eid clothes to commemorate the Eid holiday.
In many Muslim-majority countries, nutrient-rich meat is often procured through charitable gifts on occasions like the Udhiyah. This year, Baitulmaal distributed approximately 54 tons of fresh meat to beneficiaries in various poverty-stricken and conflict ridden areas of the world for the Udhiyah season.
In addition to seasonal Islamic giving programs, Baitulmaal coordinates emergency aid efforts, water, hygiene and sanitation projects, orphan support programs and other humanitarian aid to under-served populations regardless of faith or nationality.

With headquarters in Dallas, Texas, the charity has offices in: Los Angeles, California; Chicago, Illinois; Detroit, Michigan; Nairobi, Kenya; Mogadishu, Somalia; Amman and Al Ramtha, Jordan; and Karachi, Pakistan.
