In a milestone achievement in Egypt’s developmental journey, the Egyptian Food Bank (EFB), the first development organization in the region specializing in addressing food insecurity, has received the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Award. The organization was selected among 69 NGOs from 37 countries during an official ceremony held in the Italian capital, Rome, as part of the FAO Conference, which is taking place from June 28 to July 4, 2025. The award was received by Mohsen Sarhan, CEO of Egyptian Food Bank, who represented the organization at the ceremony held at the FAO headquarters. The recognition marks the journey that started in 2004 when the Egyptian Food Bank was established as a non-governmental organization with a set mission to eliminate hunger and achieve food security in Egypt.
