Since 2021, we have been crowdfunding for mum's Ramadan food pack project which she self-started a decade ago. Every day for 30 days, she would cook freshly made iftar meals so the vulnerable, homeless and less privileged could break their fast in a dignified way.
For the past four consecutive years, we have raised about £10,000 through online and offline donations and fed over 1000 people. This year’s expenses is projected at £2,000. The funds would be used to purchase fresh vegetables and ingredients needed to make Jollof Rice, Moi-Moi and Koko.
There are many young and vulnerable people including “almajiri” – orphans who rely on the food packs for Iftar and even suhoor. There is immense reward in feeding the less previledged but moreso during the month of Ramadan. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:
“Whoever feeds a person who is breaking his fast will earn the same reward as him without anything being lessened from the reward of the fasting person”
Help our mum put healthy meals in the hands of those that need it the most. You can support by donating whatever amount you can, resharing with your friends and family, and also engaging on this page by leaving a comment.
As a grassroot community project, we have a 100% donation policy whereby all the funds go directly to the project. This project is also eligible for Zakat as the recipients of the donation are from underprivileged backgrounds.
May Allah accept your donations as acts of ibadah - Ameen :)
