For a week during the month of Ramadan, Lamongan Shorebase Employees were up and about as soon as the sun rose. They were busy distributing boxes of kurma (dates) to representatives of the mosques and fishermen from the surrounding community. Dates, are high in energy and vitamins and is mostly eaten during the month of Ramadan as a means to break fast or as sahur (last meal before the day’s fast starts). Distributing boxes of this delicious and nutritious fruit during this very important month is one of the ways we share our good fortune with our community and the less fortunate around us.
