Tkiyet Um Ali (TUA) and Oxfam have signed a partnership agreement to bolster ongoing food security efforts through the provision of 4,000 ready-to-distribute food parcels, provided as an in-kind donation.

This partnership reflects a shared commitment to addressing urgent needs through practical, on-the-ground interventions. The initiative aims to alleviate the mounting cost-of-living pressures faced by Jordanian and Palestinian families, empowering them to meet their basic needs with dignity.


The distribution process will follow a strategic plan scheduled throughout the month of April,covering several governorates across the Kingdom. To ensure the parcels reach the most vulnerable households within a clear timeframe, the operations will leverage Tkiyet Um Ali’s extensive network of local partner associations.


Samer Balkar, Director General of Tkiyet Um Ali, stated:

"This partnership underscores the vital importance of integrating efforts with our humanitarian partners. Through this collaboration, we aim to enhance our capacity to reach the most underprivileged families in an organized and efficient manner. Tkiyet Um Ali remains committed to implementing interventions based on rigorous needs assessments to ensure a tangible and sustainable impact on the communities we serve."


As part of this partnership, the Oxfam team will participate directly in the distribution operations.This collaborative approach moves beyond financial or material support to include active field presence, fostering trust and strengthening ties with the beneficiary communities.

The initiative serves as a model for cooperation that combines operational efficiency with a strong field presence. It ensures that support is delivered effectively to eligible families while maintaining a focus on real-world impact—particularly in bolstering the resilience of Jordanian
and Palestinian households facing increasing economic and humanitarian challenges.

Dmitri Medlev, Oxfam Country Director in Jordan, said:

This partnership reflects Oxfam’s commitment to supporting efforts that enhance food security and reach the most marginalized groups in Jordan. By collaborating with Tkiyet Um Ali, we are working to ensure that support is delivered effectively and with dignity, responding to urgent needs and contributing to community resilience.

In the short term, these efforts contribute to immediate food security. In the long term, they support household stability and enable families to navigate recurring crises by providing reliable, regular support that mitigates food insecurity.

Tkiyet Um Ali continues to implement its sustainable food support programs, reaching thousands of families every month through evidence-based interventions designed to enhance food security and promote social stability.
