My story

****THANK YOU!!! With your prayers, support and good wishes (despite feeling as though I was gonna die at several points) I managed to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro!  It was the TOUGHEST and most rewarding experience of my life and I thank you for participating with me and helping raise over 22% of my 'PERSONAL' target of £5,000.00 - THANK YOU!!! ****

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 14th February 2012 I will (insh'allah) have reached the tender age of 37 and will do so whilst climbing up 'Mount Kilimanjaro' - The highest mountain in Africa, standing at a staggering 5895 metres/19,341 feet above sea level!

Why?  Every birthday, I consider and acknowledge the sheer blessings of having grown up with love and protection from my parents. Now, being a father to my 3 young boys Taalib, Safwan & Usamah, I can appreciate what comfort and protection parents provide. 

A devastating reality in our world today is that there are over 145 million orphan children worldwide and every 2 seconds an orphan dies from malnutrition.  To help relieve some of the poverty, I've chosen to support Islamic Help in their commitment to sponsor as many orphan children as possible.  Islamic Help are currently sponsoring over 3000 orphans across the following countries: Sudan, Iraq, India, Tanzania, Jordan, Kashmir, Palestine, Pakistan & Bangladesh

Did you know that for just £30 a month we can provide a child with food, shelter, clothing, education and welfare?  My personal target is to raise £5,000 for this 'Worldwide Orphan Sponsorship Scheme' by 4th Feb 2012.  

What you can do to help?  Please SPONSOR MY CLIMB which is completely self funded WITH A DONATION and join me in supporting this fantastic opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of orphan children around the world.   Together, I believe we can smash this target and provide some of the bare essentials to orphans.  Bare essentials that many of us have enjoyed or seek to provide as a comfort and protection from parents.
