This Ramadan, I will take part in the Kids Fight Famine Challenge with Islamic Relief Canada to support the Islamic Relief Ramadan Food Packs Program, in over 12 countries!
About my Purpose
My name is Zoya. I am 12 years old, and I am in Grade 7. I want to raise money to help fight famine this Ramadan.
This is very important to me because there are so many people and families that don’t have enough food to eat, due to many reasons such as wars and natural disasters like the earthquakes in Turkiye and Syria.
I would also like to take the opportunity this Ramadan to help those in need. Did you know, $150 can feed a family for a whole month! You can help make a difference to the lives of others.
Please help me with my goal of raising $500 for those in need.
Thank you for your Support!
Islamic Relief's Food Programs
We are helping to feed nearly 900,000 people each year across the world in countries, including Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan, and Palestine.
We work to provide sustainable long-term food solutions for communities in need, as well as offering short-term lifesaving interventions in response to global emergencies.
We distribute seeds and train locals to improve agricultural production, we introduce small-scale fish farming to enable families to improve their diet and increase their income and we establish community-run food banks to help as many people as possible.
With additional school gardens to help children in local communities and irrigation schemes to increase agricultural productivity, we’re enabling communities to grow more food. What’s more, when war, conflict and natural disaster-hits, we’re straight on the ground to support communities in need.
We set up and support emergency feeding centres to support severely malnourished children, provide emergency food packs and food vouchers to help feed a family and individuals in crisis and also distribute fresh meat during Ramadan and Qurbani to offer a vital protein source for malnourished families.
By supporting our Islamic Relief, you’ll be helping to feed families in times of emergency and to fight food poverty, to ensure hunger no more for communities over the long-term. By providing food support, you’ll be crucially saving lives.
