Humanitarian campaign Fazaa for Morocco launched to ‘help our brothers,’ says general supervisor Omar Al-Thuwaini Associations dispatch envoys to affected areas to supervise distribution of relief MARRAKESH, Morocco: Kuwaiti charitable associations are hard at work in relief operations in Morocco having dispatched teams to earthquake-hit regions to determine survivors’ needs and provide aid. “Fazaa for Morocco is a humanitarian campaign, in which 14 charitable associations are participating, in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Social Affairs, to help our brothers in Morocco after this earthquake hit various regions,” said Omar Al-Thuwaini, the campaign’s general supervisor, to Kuwait News Agency on Saturday. He added the associations had dispatched envoys to the areas to supervise the process of distributing relief and to help victims. Al-Thuwaini said: “We have reached some regions that were ravaged by the earthquake and examined the volume of the damage.” The associations have so far distributed 1,100 food parcels and 2,200 blankets to more than 7,000 people affected by the earthquake, according to KUNA. Meshari Al-Enezi, of the Al-Najat charity, said the Kuwaiti groups would focus in the second phase of the operation on rebuilding houses, schools and medical centers in the damaged areas. He said the activities had been carried out in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, “the umbrella of the Kuwaiti charity work abroad,” in addition to other government departments. Khaled Al-Shamri, Namaa charity’s director, said he was left in a state of “shock and awe” when he saw the terrifying destruction while touring those regions affected.
