ALEC Holdings said that during the holy month of Ramadan it donated dry food and hygiene care packages worth US $43,567 to laborers and low-income families in both the UAE and Saudi Arabia as part of their community outreach efforts. These essential items were distributed to the beneficiaries through their partners, Emirates Red Crescent, SmartLife (a non-profit organisation), and the Charity Association in Riyadh.
Over 1,800 ALEC employees, including some of ALEC’s subcontractor and other partners across nine projects across UAE & KSA as well as the company’s head offices and factories donated these items. 64 ALEC employees volunteered to package the dry food and hygiene products into care hampers, alongside SmartLife volunteers, participated in distributing these at a labour camp in Dubai.

“At ALEC, we believe true success goes beyond financial performance — it’s about the meaningful impact we make in the communities we serve. Our commitment to positive change is embedded in everything we do, from our operations to our values. This spirit is reflected across our entire team, and we’re incredibly proud to match the generous contributions our employees have made to support these vital humanitarian efforts,” said Barry Lewis, CEO of ALEC.
