Assalaamu alaikum and hello,
Thanks for visiting the Ramadhan Rewards team fundraising page!
A bunch of us are joining together to raise money for our favourite charity, Islamic Help, in aid of 5 very worthy causes.
THE CAUSES
Darul Fadilah, Gaza
Famine Appeal, East Africa
Water Wells, Worldwide
Orphans, Worldwide
Smiles Better, South East Asia
Ramadhan Rewards is a series of challenge events set up to raise £50,000, insha-Allah, for 5 different causes supported by Islamic Help (UK registered charity 1100259).
HOW IT WORKS
In Ramadhan, you make the intention to participate in a challenge and fundraise throughout the Holy Month. You then complete the challenge after 'Eid and take the rewards of Ramadhan into the rest of the year, insha-Allah!
There will be three challenges to take part in (see below). If you can't take part then please sponsor the existing participants, as 100% of your donation will go to the cause, insha-Allah!
HOW YOU CAN TAKE PART!
• Choose the challenge that you want to take part in the most (or choose all three if you want!)
• Register a justgiving page and pay a £50 registration for each event you want to take part in (instructions available by email ummah.united@yahoo.co.uk for more details).
• Then fundraise the remaining £950 for each challenge from your family, friends, colleagues, etc! Just tell them what you are raising money for, tell them the challenge you’re taking on and give them your justgiving link so they can donate online. You can also collect cash from them and pay that in on their behalf.
• Finally, don't forget to join the RAMADHAN REWARDS 2011 team on JustGiving using the following link.

Every £1000 raised will be split equally between the 5 causes so if 50 people complete a challenge each cause will get £10,000 insha-Allah.
