Saudi Arabia’s aid agency signed a $6.8 million agreement with the World Food Program to help meet the nutritional needs of Syrian refugees in Jordan.
Assistant Supervisor General of King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) Ahmed Al-Bayez and WFP GCC representative Mageed Yahia signed the deal via video conference.
KSrelief will provide a grant to the WFP to distribute food aid to 54,000 Syrian refugees at Zaatari camp through monthly electronic vouchers to be used in shops and bakeries at the camp.
The grant falls within relief and humanitarian projects implemented by KSrelief to support Syrian refugees and improve their living conditions in various asylum environments.
