Hussain Nasser Lootah, director general of Dubai Municipality and Hussein Hachem, cluster general manager of Al Bustan Rotana Dubai and Al Murooj Rotana Dubai amongst other esteemed guests.

Heafz Al Na’amah aims to collect excess food from hotels and distribute them in labour camps and other less fortunate residents of the city. Al Bustan Rotana Dubai has been an active part of this noble initiative for many years now, with excess food from weddings hosted in the hotel being donated for this cause.

As part of the programme, the hotel adheres to strict quality standard procedures, from preparation to storage and logistics set by the Dubai Municipality to ensure the highest quality of the food being donated. The hotel has donated more than 30,000 individual servings of food in 2015.

Commenting on this cause, Hussein Hachem, cluster general manage, said: “Heafz Al Na’amah is a highly significant Dubai Muncipality initiative we strongly support. Giving back to the community and contributing to society in every possible way we can is of great importance, and we look forward to increasing the food contribution of Al Bustan Rotana Dubai more than we have done last year. We are honoured to be part of this programme and we are proud to support again this year and the years to come.” – TradeArabia News Service
