Introduction
For students staying in dorms, Ramadan isn’t just a month of worship — it’s also a time where daily meal planning becomes a challenge. Far from home and often on a tight budget, many students rely on campus-based welfare initiatives.
Student Executive Councils (MEPs) often play a key role in coordinating food distribution programs, supported by college management and external sponsors. With current needs in mind, the concept of packed lunches is seen as a more practical and student-friendly way to ensure iftar meals are distributed effectively.
Here are some tasty and easy packed iftar meal ideas perfect for students in colleges and universities.
