talabat UAE has extended its partnership with the Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department (IACAD) for a second consecutive year to relaunch the Ramadan “Hero Meals” campaign. The initiative enables customers to donate Iftar meals to delivery riders across Dubai via the talabat app.
Following last year’s campaign, which distributed over 4,000 meals to riders, the 2026 edition will include more than 650 participating restaurant branches.
Through the app, customers can contribute meals prepared by partner restaurants, which riders then receive while collecting customer orders during Ramadan.
Simonida Subotic, Vice President and Managing Director at talabat UAE, said the campaign aims to bring together customers, restaurant partners and riders in a collective effort to give back, while recognising the role riders play in serving communities.
Mohammad Musabeh Ali Dhahi, CEO of the Charitable Work Sector at IACAD, said, “The Hero Meals campaign reflects the true spirit of Ramadan and the power of community solidarity. It also highlights the value of strong public-private partnerships in turning the principles of giving into meaningful initiatives with real human impact.”
The “Hero Meals” collection will be available daily from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm throughout Ramadan, with delivery riders receiving their meals while picking up customer orders, allowing them to enjoy Iftar after completing their deliveries.
