SME News Europe. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – In a remarkable step toward sustainable humanitarian impact, Manal Abu Al-Ala, widely known as “The Iron Lady,” has been officially appointed as the Ambassador of E2G FOOD (Eat-2-Grow) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
This appointment marks not just a new chapter in Abu Al-Ala’s extraordinary journey—but a powerful leap forward in the global fight against hunger.
From surviving hardship to shaping hope, Manal Abu Al-Ala has become a symbol of resilience, transformation, and purpose-driven leadership. Her return to the global humanitarian stage reaffirms her lifelong commitment to empowering communities and creating sustainable solutions for those in need.
Pioneering Food Innovation with Purpose
In her new role, Abu Al-Ala will represent E2G FOOD, a UK-based organization revolutionizing global nutrition through science-backed, nutrient-dense food bars made with spirulina—a superfood known for its high nutritional value. Recently enhanced with dark chocolate for added health benefits, these products are more than meals—they’re lifelines.
With E2G’s cutting-edge “Track Your Impact” platform, donors can monitor their contributions in real time, fostering transparency and trust in every act of giving.
E2G is now collaborating with grassroots organizations in Saudi Arabia to cultivate spirulina locally, ensuring both sustainability and empowerment at the community level.
