The Kuwait Red Crescent Society (KRCS) provided $1.0 million contribution to provide food assistance to Rohingyas and host communities in Bangladesh.
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) welcomed the contribution.
With the donation, WFP will be able to carry out food distributions for some 14,000 people for three months, said a press release received in Dhaka on Monday.
In addition, 8,500 of the most vulnerable people -- such as children under five and pregnant and nursing mothers -- will receive six months of nutrition assistance.
"This is the second partnership with WFP for food assistance to Rohingya refugees," said Dr Hilal Al-Sayer, President of the Kuwait Red Crescent Society.
"We are pleased to partner with WFP and hope to work together on other projects in the future." he added.
Earlier this year, a delegation from the Kuwait Red Crescent Society visited WFP projects in the Cox's Bazar area and witnessed the dire conditions in the camps.
"We appreciate the growing partnership with the Kuwait Red Crescent Society," said Abdallah Alwardat, WFP Director in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Region.
"The timing of this new contribution for Rohingyas, at the start of Ramadan, is of great importance," he said.
Each month, WFP reaches over 850,000 people with food assistance in the Cox's Bazar area, reports BSS.
