My story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

We have witnessed the destruction of Gaza through the bombardment and blockades, resulting in the lives of innocent people being destroyed. Homes, schools, and crucial public supplies have been decimated; families are starving, in need of food and urgent medical care.
We hope to raise money to help the people of Gaza try and get out of this humanitarian crisis by providing vital aid.

Race Results:

£1500 Target reached
£2000 Target reached
£2500 inshAllah

This crisis won’t go away in just a few weeks - it will take years to rebuild peoples lives. We need to do what we can to help the people of Gaza now. Look at the figures:

More than 1,300 Palestinians killed

More than 4,000 buildings destroyed in Gaza

More than 20,000 buildings severely damaged

More than 50,000 Gazans homeless

More than 400,000 without running water

These are the reasons why we (Syed, Nazrul and Mohammed) have decided to run the ‘ Manchester 10k Run’ to raise funds. This will be a challenge for us as it is our first ever official run that we will take part in.

Muslim Aid

Through local partners, Muslim Aid is working with those most affected. More than 850 food parcels (at the time of writing) have already been distributed, with each pack feeding a family for up to a month. Muslim Aid is also working with the ‘Palestine Trauma Centre’ to provide social and psychological care for children and families affected by the war on Gaza. (See the photos)

Muslim Aid has been delivering humanitarian and developmental assistance in Palestine through its partners for over two decades. Muslim Aid partners in Gaza have been delivering food packages to families, and medical supplies to hospitals and clinics since the recent conflicts began.

Donating through ‘Justgiving’ is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Muslim Aid gets your money faster and, if you’re a taxpayer, ‘Justgiving’ makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please donate generously!
