Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Syrian families already struggling against the hardships they face as refugees, the arrival of a new-born is not only a time of joy but also concern. Many – especially those in unofficial refugee camps – face shortages of the essentials of life including food, water and shelter.
With little or no financial support and the lack of medical facilities, the birth of a child not only places additional burdens on a family but brings with it the risk of endangering the baby’s life and that of the mother. Even for those who are in refugee camps set up by international aid agencies or governments, or fortunate to be taken to hospital, the lack of financial help places further stress on them.
Islamic Help will be providing expecting mothers with everything they require for a safe birth.
Through the ‘Birth’ programme, we will be covering hospital and delivery costs and immediate aftercare costs such as sanitary items, baby clothes, food and items needed for both mother and child.
With the help of our supporters, Islamic Help wants to help as many of these mothers as possible to safely give birth, to know that their new-born arrives into this world in a safe and caring environment.
We want to establish a system which can support existing medical infrastructure and facilities, and develop a new one that caters to the needs of thousands of women and children.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
