Amman, Jordan: talabat Jordan, the region’s leading food and grocery delivery app, has recently announced the onboarding of SOS Children's Villages Jordan to the list of virtual charities on its app. By adding SOS Children’s Villages to its in-app donation mechanism, talabat Jordan is working to support the charity organization and its noble mission of providing care for orphaned children and youth.

Through this partnership, talabat Jordan intends to support SOS Children’s Villages’ existing repertoire of programs and activities, which aim to meet the comprehensive and diverse needs of orphaned children and youth. The organization provides its young beneficiaries with a wide range of services and support, including food, housing, education, physical and mental healthcare, empowerment, economic security, protection, and community integration. Through a series of upcoming donation campaigns, talabat users, partners, and employees will now be able to support the vital work being done by SOS Children’s Villages Jordan—all through the convenience and ease of the talabat app.

talabat Jordan’s Managing Director, Hala Siraj, commented on this new partnership, saying, "We are excited to add SOS Children's Villages Jordan to our ever-growing virtual charity list. In doing so, we are taking proactive steps to better facilitate their important work, while also helping our customers, partners, and employees enhance their positive social impact. As a company, we are keen to support people and communities everywhere, with a particular focus on children and youth. In doing so, we are expanding and solidifying our vision of being a purpose-driven company, whose commitments extend far beyond our core operations and investments.”

For her part, the Country Director of SOS Children's Villages Jordan, Rana Al-Zoubi, expressed her happiness in joining forces with talabat Jordan. She noted that because talabat serves all parts of the Kingdom, this strategic partnership will allow community members across Jordan to contribute to the organization’s mission of helping meet the diverse needs of children and youth under its care. Al-Zoubi further underscored how talabat Jordan serves as a great example of the vital role that private sector institutions can play in supporting local charities.

SOS Children’s Villages Jordan is a national non-profit organization caring for over 30% of all orphaned and vulnerable children in Jordan who lack parental care. The organization operates across 32 houses, three villages, and eight youth houses in the cities of Amman, Irbid, and Aqaba. talabat Jordan’s decision to partner with SOS Children’s Villages Jordan stems from the company’s corporate responsibility strategy, through which it aims to become a primary and preferred partner for social and economic empowerment--in much that same way that it is already is a primary and preferred partner for online ordering and food delivery throughout the Kingdom.

Over the past two years, talabat Jordan has implemented countless corporate responsibility initiatives and programs benefiting local, regional, and international communities. Through its virtual charity platform, hosted directly on the app, talabat Jordan allows users to donate to renowned charities such as Al-Aman Fund, Tkiyet Um Ali, the King Hussein Cancer Center, and the Jordanian Food Bank. Along with this ongoing mechanism for supporting local charitable organizations, the company has carried out numerous other humanitarian campaigns in support of communities in need across Jordan, throughout the region, and worldwide.
