The office of the General Authority of Zakat in Hodeida Governorate organized two awareness and training workshops for Zakat trustees in the districts of Alluheyah and Az Zuhrah, in conjunction with the grain harvest season.
The two workshops aimed to enhance the efficiency of trustees in recording crop and fruit data, developing harvest evaluation mechanisms, and ensuring that zakat on in-kind grains is distributed fairly to the poor and needy.
