Syria Appeal
The crisis in Syria is well into its third year. The oppression has taken its toll as widows and orphans now populate the many displacement camps and relief centres.
Ummah Welfare Trust has been appealing for funds to help our brothers and sisters for many months now. Alhamdulillah through your generosity, much relief has been administered.
Aiding the Displaced in Syria:
- 8,000 food packs distributed to families across Homs, Damascus and Aleppo
- 200 wounded victims in Homs received emergency medical treatment
- 550 medical kits provided to medical centres across northern Syria
- 50 tonnes of flour distributed across rural areas
- Winter aid kits provided to hundreds families in Aleppo
- In April 2013, 7,000 newly-affected families across the Idlib, Aleppo, Damascus, Hama, Homs, Raqqa, Deir Ezzor and the coastal areas received food supplies.
Aiding newly-arrived Refugees in Jordan and Turkey:
- 24,000 families provided with emergency food provisions
- 4,000 families received kitchen and wash utensils
- 4,000 families received hygiene kits
- Winter aid kits provided to wounded refugees
The charity is now establishing a centre inside Syria to support widowed and orphaned families. The centre will house 100 families, catering for their every need inshaAllah.
Families will be provided with mattresses, clothing, blankets, kitchen utensils, hygiene kits and given freshly cooked food twice a day.
The centre will have a masjid, free schooling for children and segregated toilet facilities. Families will also have access to a permanent supply of water.
Ummah Welfare Trust is also continuing its provision of emergency medical kits to help save the lives of civilians caught up in the conflict. One medical kit costs £35.
The believer remains committed to helping his brethren and pleasing Allah. He does not tire nor start procrastinating; rather he continues increasing his endeavours until he meets his Maker.
Please help the widows and orphans.
