What support will I provide?
Our projects are delivered in partnership with Human Appeal who have over 30 years’ experience of providing iftar. Their Ramadan projects include:
Food parcels tailored to local foods and customs, including staples such as flour, rice, sugar, oil, beans, cheese, tea, and dates.
Hot meals, typically containing meat or chicken, rice or bread, juice or water, a dessert and dates.
Community iftars, where people can gather and break bread together, listen to Quran, and pray tarawih together
They also provide Eid gifts to children, though your donations will strictly be used for iftar.
Why direct your waqf to Ramadan iftars?
Good deeds in the month of Ramadan are multiplied many times over, and providing iftar to a fasting person brings the same reward as the person fasting.
Every single night of Ramadan, for the rest of your life and beyond, you can reap the benefit of extra fasts. Donate a waqf share to iftars and next Ramadan, you’ll provide 2 families of 5 with food parcels to last them the whole month. In 10 years, you’ll provide 25 families. In 100 years, you’ll have provided 349 families and your waqf is still growing.
It’s impossible to calculate the immense reward, but Allah’s generosity is endless. May you be among those to reap His blessings this Ramadan, and every Ramadan.
