Z KARIM AKA BABZ is raising money for Discover Islam Luton
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I will be shooting 1000 arrows for a charity based in Luton dedicated to working and serving people of this town.
Local friends and families in Luton set up the Discover Islam centre to provide a voice for the Muslim community to present their faith and deliver social initiatives to support the most needy in society.
5 years on, the team have delivered amazing results including:
- Helping to set up and support Luton Foodbank donating more than 50,000 food items since it was established
- Feeding 100 Homeless people weekly every Friday through the Curry Kitchen delivered in partnership with Community Interest Luton
- Holding Bedfordshire's only Uniform Exchange which works with more than 30 schools to provide uniforms to children in need locally in partnership with the Level Trust.
- Providing gifts to children in care annually in partnership with Luton Borough Council Fostering teams
- Launching the HeatLuton campaign in partnership with Age Concern Luton to combat fuel poverty and support Lutons elderly community and local households in need.
- Delivering presentations to thousands of school children
- Hosting an annual Hajj Exhibition in partnership with Luton Culture
- Organising an annual Fastathon in Ramadan encouraging everyone to skip lunch and support a good local cause
- Training public and private sector organisations on Islam awareness and cultural diversity. Professional guidance has been provided to the Football Association, Bedfordshire Police & Prisons service, the NHS, CHUMS Bereavement services, Active Luton and INSET training for school teachers and management.
- Supporting Mosque open days locally
- Volunteering at Luton Half Marathon
- Hosting the Uprising youth annual review workshop
- Promoting Blood donations with the local Blood bank
- Supporting charitable causes locally including Keech Hospice, Friends of Bright Eyes, L & D hospital and many more.
