"Charity is an effective cure, and the actions of people in their present life will be before their eyes in the next life." Imam Ali (as) - Nahjul Balagha, Saying 7
This Shahr Ramadhan, Imam Zamana Trust are fundraising to provide food parcels for impoverished Muslim communities living in and around the Tanzanian city of Arusha. Many families are sadly struggling to feed themselves, especially due to the rising prices of commodities such as cooking oil and sugar.
The food parcels will mainly be distributed to local centres that will either serve Iftar during the holy month or deliver the parcels to individual families in need of them.
Our partner charity based in Tanzania, Mobile Eyes, are targeting between 20-25 centres spanning Arusha, as well as the Manyara, Tanga, and Kilimanjaro regions.
The estimated total cost of Iftar per centre per night is 328,000 TSh (£100).
£100 will also feed a family of 4-5 people for the entirety of the holy month.
Donations may also be utilised after Shahr Ramadhan to provide food parcels for widows and orphans in Arusha.
Please donate whatever amount you can to help feed your Tanzanian brothers and sisters in need.
For further details, please contact Br Mohsin Ukka (+44 7956 808408) or Br Sajjad Tejani (+44 7900 900388)
