For over 40 years, Omo and Comfort have been helping families to ‘share an extra dose of love’ and for the fifth year, the brands are rolling out their annual Ramadan community campaign across UAE in partnership with Emirates Red Crescent and other local charities.
”Share A Touch Of Love this Ramadan” with Omo and Comfort is a clothes donation campaign across UAE that encourages the people of the region to donate clothes to those less fortunate than themselves during the Holy Month of Ramadan. Omo and Comfort donation booths are being installed in four malls in collaboration with Emirates Red Crescent and local charities who will distribute the apparel collected to refugee camps around the region.
“Unilever is delighted to continue its long-standing community event; encouraging the people of the region to share a touch of love this Ramadan with Omo and Comfort. The success of this campaign year on year has been incredible and with the increased scale of activity; tripling the size of the initial activation taking it to 28 additional days of collections in addition to a dedicated number for collecting clothes from people’s homes, we look forward to even more donations being received this year as part of the Ramadan charitable acts.” Waqas Javed, Marketing Director Foods, Refreshments & Home Care – Unilever Gulf.
