Whilst we all will enjoy this Ramadan in the comfort of our homes, Children In Countries Like Yemen and Palestine Eagerly Wait For Your Help

We'll be in the comfort of our homes with ample food to sustain us each day, there are children all over the world who do not have this privilege. No child should suffer from the long- term effects of hunger, especially in the holy month. This is the unfortunate reality for many Rohingya, Syrian, Yemeni, Palestinian, Afghan and Kashmiri children who are suffering in environments of persecution and war, malnutrition, waterborne diseases and a lack of safe shelter are the daily dangers these children face. 

The Unfortunate Cost of War

Your chance to make a difference.

This Ramadan, we need your help to ensure that these children receive the food they so desperately need. Just £100 can provide one food parcel that will feed a family for an entire month. Each parcel includes staple food for a family of up to 7 members, which works out to 420 meals for the entire month. With basic food items like flour, oil and rice affected by rising inflation, your support is needed more than ever before. Furthermore, by providing just 1 parcel you can gain the reward of 210 Ramadan fasts that would normally take us 7 lunar years to fast. This is based on the following hadith: The Prophet (saw) said, ’Whoever feeds a person breaking his fast will earn the same reward as him, without anything being lessened from the reward of the fasting person’. [Tirmidhi]
