MCA Supporters Turn Anniversary into Humanitarian Mission: 200,000 Meals Sent to Gaza

✍️ BY: Dr. Hana Saada

Algiers, Algeria | In a remarkable display of conscience and solidarity, the supporters of Mouloudia Club d’Alger (MCA), the country’s oldest football institution, have chosen to forgo their own celebrations in order to alleviate the suffering of the besieged people of Gaza. On August 7, instead of commemorating the club’s 104th anniversary with the customary festivities, the “Green and Red” faithful made the extraordinary decision to redirect the funds traditionally spent on celebrations toward humanitarian relief.

The outcome was nothing short of unprecedented. Through the charitable association Al-Baraka, MCA fans managed to channel the equivalent of their festive budget into a lifeline of sustenance: some 200,000 meals dispatched to Palestinians enduring hunger under the suffocating Zionist blockade. This act, borne of moral courage and collective sacrifice, illustrates how the spirit of sportsmanship can transcend the stadium and become a beacon of humanity.

For weeks, Gaza has been gripped by acute shortages, with entire families enduring months of famine and deprivation as the siege persists. Against this backdrop, the MCA supporters’ gesture resonates far beyond Algeria, serving as a reminder that solidarity is not merely a slogan but a responsibility that demands action. Their initiative speaks volumes about the power of grassroots mobilization when driven by conviction and empathy, and how ordinary citizens—united around a common cause—can deliver extraordinary impact.

The symbolism could not be stronger. A club born over a century ago in resistance against colonial injustice now sees its modern-day supporters rallying against contemporary oppression, channeling their energy and resources into a cause larger than sport itself. The act of substituting celebration with compassion, festivity with fraternity, is a powerful message to the world: that true loyalty is measured not by chants in the stands, but by solidarity in times of crisis.

In an era where global powers often remain paralyzed in the face of Gaza’s humanitarian tragedy, the MCA fans’ initiative is a resounding reminder that humanity’s moral compass is kept alive by the people. Their gesture will forever remain inscribed in the chronicles of Algerian civil solidarity with Palestine, a luminous testimony to the unbreakable bond that unites the two peoples.
