Superhero Day marked with delivery drivers

DUBAI: Mai Dubai has honoured delivery riders on World super hero day, april 28,2022, by helping them break their fast with a water botle of Mai Dubai and food at various signals and locations across Dubai. The initiative was aimed at celebrating the ‘everyday superheroes’ who strive to ensure timely delivery, by giving them the chance to break their fast while still on duty.

Alexander van ‘t Riet, CEO of Mai Dubai said: “Ramadan is a special time to extend a helping hand, especially towards our silent, everyday superheroes who go above and beyond to ensure that people break their fasts on time. Mai Dubai is extremely delighted that our team had the opportunity to serve the delivery riders for Itar as a token of our utmost respect for their diligence and commitment. We hope this will be a message to others, inspiring them to look out for their community and do good deeds.”

Through this initiative, mai dubai, owned by dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has successfully embraced the Ramadan spirit of gratitude and sharing. The company is looking forward to carrying out more initiatives that are inline with their corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to benefit society.

Also during the month, GE employees in the UAE purchased more than 800 Ramadan Food Care Boxes in support of the Smart Life charity program. The initiative, held every year during the holy month, provides blue collar workers in Dubai with a month’s worth of food essentials, including cooking oil, tea, sugar, rice, dal, dates, and beans.

With so many boxes donated, more than one distribution was done during the month. The first several hundred boxes were delivered by Smart Life to a labour accommodation housing women working for a cleaning company.
