London to Paris 2016 · 13 August 2016

Ummah Welfare Trust was founded in 2001 with the goal of challenging the huge poverty and injustice prevalent in the Ummah today. Inspired by the Islamic teachings of empathy and selflessness, the charity strives to support and uplift the impoverished through the beautiful act of charity.

Story


The denial of food has become a brutal weapon in Syria's war. Prolonged sieges are leaving thousands of residents in contested areas facing starvation, and a slow death.

Residents in Ghouta, Mouadhamiyah, Yarmouk, and recently Madaya, have been encircled and denied food and medicines. They are being punished with hunger.

'Give in charity even if it be one date, as this will stop the hunger of the hungry person; and will extinguish sin the way water extinguishes fire.'

Al Zuhd, Ibn al Mubarak

Ummah Welfare Trust, through local partners and networks, is moving to purchase food and deliver it, though slowly, to hungry families in besieged areas across Syria.

We'll be riding 200+ miles on a sponsored cycle ride from London to Paris to highlight and fundraise for these vulnerable, oppressed and starving people.

ZAKAH ACCEPTED (but please make a mention of it in the notes/message when donating).
