Rice Bags Distribution
LOOMING HUNGER CRISIS GRIPS AFRICA (Uganda)
(Our team is working hard on the ground to distribute rice in Africa)
Thousands of people are living on the edge of an emergency. It’s called hunger.
How would you feel if you had to go to bed hungry every night? If every day of your life, you were worried whether you could provide enough food for your family? If you had to watch your children fail to grow and thrive because they didn’t have enough to eat?
“The fact is that there’s enough food in the world to feed everyone, but not everyone gets enough food to eat”
People are relying on food parcels that are being distributed by charities and organisations but "we are hearing heart-breaking stories all the time of people not being reached in rural areas and whole settlements where food distribution has hardly touched".
The motorbike taxi driver, who used to earn about $2 (£1.60) a day, has had no work since the government banned public transport last month as part of measures to slow the spread of coronavirus.
"We are going to die inside our homes because we will run out of food, we've been told not to leave our homes." Villagers said.
25kg Rice bag cost £25 (Zakat, Sadaqah or Lillah)

GIFT CLEAN WATER
A water donation is one of the greatest things you can do with your charity.
‘The Messenger of Allah (saw) was asked, “Which charity is best?” He replied, “[Providing] water”’. [Abu Dawud]
our water projects are designed to provide clean water to vulnerable and impoverished communities, for years to come. We seek to provide long-term solutions to water scarcity in a world that is increasingly affected by water scarcity and climate change. With your water donation, we strive to promote health and safety with freshwater supplies and stop women and children from having to walk for miles each day to collect water, by building hand pumps.
Clean water means people always have water to wash their hands and themselves, as well as kitchen utensils when cooking, helping to stop the spread of disease and illness.
Each water donation provides water to families for drinking, washing, cleaning and cooking.
With your water donation, children from remote regions who would usually spend the day searching for water are now able to attend school seek knowledge and develop, moving closer to fulfilling their dreams. Mothers are united with their families who would typically walk for miles every day in search of water. All of whom are now protected from water-borne diseases which are the root problem for the majority of all illnesses in third world countries. Your water donation truly helps save lives and transforms communities.
With a water pump donation of just £1,500 - £2000 (Depending on the place and area), we can completely revolutionise the way countless people in poverty are currently having to live their lives. By installing a simple water handpump close to their home, those many hours a day spent walking miles just for clean water are significantly reduced and they can focus on improving their family income and wellbeing. As the family have access to clean water, there is a significant reduction in the risk of disease and contamination. Every water donation means people are healthier for longer, and that families are less worried about heavy medical bills.
A handpump is a small but efficient mechanism that can support a big communal area with access to clean drinking water. Currently, we are supporting the installation of water handpumps in (Africa) Uganda. Hand pumps provide households with as much water as they need each day for drinking, cleaning and cooking.
Upon completion of water handpumps, donors receive a personalised handpump report which includes a picture of their sponsored handpump benefiting the local community.
Your water donation of handpumps can also be done in the name of somebody else or in memory of a loved one who has passed away. It is a beautiful act of Sadaqah Jariyah, as communities will benefit from your water pump donation for years to come. Insha’Allah with every drop of water drunk or used for washing will bring you beautiful reward upon reward.
Make your water donation today and build a handpump for a family in need.
One Hand Pump is £1,500 - £2000 (depending on the place and area) in Africa
