    Over a week ago, Ahmad Sherkawi,

    sent out a tweet

    hoping to collect food for street cleaners in Lebanon. Things took off so quickly that we had to

    create a special post to follow the live updates

    . In a matter of days, many restaurants, companies, businesses and municipalities donated food, water, their time and other services to support this initiative. Ahmad initially asked for 100 meals. Within 4 days, they received 1,010 meals, 100 goodie bags and 2,400 good bags. They have already distributed 200 meals and 500 food cans. The rest of the donations will be distributed this coming week and the schedule is as such:

    Tuesday, May 2: Tripoli

    Wednesday, May 3: Beirut

    Thursday, May 4: Tyre

    Friday, May 5: Zahle

    The collection and campaign will stop this Monday. However, they have plans to launch a new campaign. You can follow the updates on Ahmad’s

    Twitter

    . These are all the companies, restaurants, businesses and NGO’s who have supported this initiative in one way or the other: Crepaway, Roadsters, Zaatar w zeit, McDonald’s, Batchig, Assaha, Boukhalil, Onlivery, Al Taghziyah, Tannourine, Al Wadi Al Akhdar, Petriotics, Chouchou Snack, Al Hallab, food blessed, the social media house, Eventus and the innerlightbox.
