Help us provide iftar for orphans at New Midland Islamic Orphanage and Primary School, Uganda. We need about 1 USD per child/day for 500 children.


Assalaam alaikum. Ramadhan kareem. Praise and thanks be to Allah for having brought us this far. May He accept and generously reward you for your kindness and good deeds in this month. Ameen.

We need your help to provide iftar  and Eid meals for New Midland Islamic Orphanage and Primary School at Luwero, Uganda. The center is home to about 450 children. Thirty of them are HIV positive after being born to HIV positive parents.

We estimate expenditure of 1 US Dollar per child per day, making it 500 USD per day.

The center depends on donations from the public. Due to the restrictions following COVID19, all congregational prayers in the mosques have been suspended, leading to a drastic reduction of income for the orphanage. 

IftarUnder Covid19 Restrictions

The movement restrictions imposed by the government to control the spread of Covid19 have left the orphanage with limited sources of income and on the brink of starvation. 

This Ramadhan would have been  really difficult for them without your support. The prices of food and other necessities have significantly increased during the lockdown period due to difficulties in transportation and getting access to imported items like sugar, cooking oil and rice.

Alhamdulillah, with the support of our donors on Launchgood as well as offline donors, we have been able to provide food for the children. May Allah bless you.

As we thank you for your contributions, we have a few more days to go.

Moreover, we would like to provide decent Eid meals for these orphans. This will only be possible with your support.


The Prophet (SAW) said that the dua (supplication) of the fasting person is immediately accepted by Allah. Imagine  these children are praying for you at the time of their iftar! And surely they do. . Click this link to see video:

Thank You for Supporting Our Campaign

Assalaam alaikum.

I hope that this message finds you and your family in good health. May Allah protect you from all calamities.

I'm writing to express, once again, for your kind contribution to our campaign last Ramadhan. With your contribution we were able to feed the orphans throughout Ramadhan and prepare for them a memorable Eid feast. May Allah bless you and grant you more rizq so that you continue to do more good. Ameen.

I would also like to inform you that we have started a new campaign, still looking for support to feed the children for Eid al-Adha and beyond. While we work hard to find ways of producing some of the staple foods, there are still some items that we need to purchase. And we are counting on kind people like you to support our work. May Allah bless you always.

Here is the link for our new campaign

We will appreciate if you could share it with your social media contacts to maximize the benefit.

Jazaka Allah khayran.

Thank You For Supporting Us!

Assalaam alaikum.


We thank Allah that we are coming close to the end of Ramadhan. May Allah grant us the good in these last days. May He give us the blessings of Laylatul Qadr.


This is a quick note to thank you for your support.


Alhamdulillah, with your contributions we bought food for iftar at New Midland Islamic Orphanage in Uganda. The Director, teachers and children are very grateful. They couldn't imagine how they were going to face Ramadhan under Covid19 restrictions. But Alhamdulillah, you helped them have decent meals.


Now we are very close to Eid. We will appreciate if you can spread the word to other kindhearted Muslims like you.


May Allah bless you and your family and grant you Jannatul Firdaws.


Yours,


Siraje
