CLEAN WATER PROJECT IN THE MEMORY OF LATE ISHMUM HUSSAIN

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

On Sunday 28th February 2021 our beloved brother Ishmum Hussain left this world and returned to Our Creator. May Allah (SWT) bless him and grant him a place In Jannah al Firdous. Ameen.

Ishmum worked at Doodh Patti in Bradford for a short period of 4 months, however it felt like we knew him for years. We would like to raise funds in the name of Ishmum for a Water Filtration Plant which will be organised by Kashmir Orphan Relief Trust (KORT) as a Sadaqah-e-Jariyah for him.

Unsafe water is the single biggest obstacle to the health of communities in the developing world. When people are denied access to clean water their hygiene and health suffer. Poor hygiene means children get sick and miss school. Small children are especially vulnerable to cholera and diarrheal illnesses, and unsafe water compromises their immune systems making it difficult for them to fight illnesses.

With your help, we can bring clean water to rural communities in Azad Kashmir, giving them safe water for drinking, cooking and cleaning, water for their crops and animals, and the chance to break out of the poverty cycle.

The Water Filtration Plant will Cost £5,250 and any extra money raised will go towards the KORT Orphanage.

Water extracted through cheaper methods such as hand pumps is often contaminated. It carries a lot of bacteria and is not always safe to drink putting lives at risk.

Compared to hand pumps, the construction of a Water Filtration Plant involves:

- Digging a bore up to 150ft deep to access clearer water

- A 10ft x 10ft room on the surface which contains the actual filtration plant that filters and cleans the water before it reaches the taps making it safe to drink

- Multiple taps on the outside so multiple people can access clean water all at the same time

Only Sadaqah, Lillah and general donations accepted for this project.

Please don't forget to add Gift Aid to your donations which will help with KORT's admin costs. This also ensures all funds raised go towards the cause.

As Zakat is not applicable for this project, any Zakat funds received through this appeal will be allocated to the orphans of KORT and other Zakat eligible projects of KORT.

Take part and help us achieve this goal in the memory of our beloved Ishmum Hussain 25.02.2004 - 28.02.2021

On Behalf Of Doodh Patti (Bradford) & The Muslim Ummah
