Story

InTouch Foundation will be conducting projects in poor areas Pakistan (Lahore, Islamabad and Kashmir) in October 2017.

Weddings (£500 per couple)

Due to crushing poverty, countless families in South Asian countries are unable to have their daughters and sisters get married. .​InTouch Foundation has launching a marriage project in Pakistan to support families in these difficult situations by providing basic items according to the Sunnah of Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) necessary for newlywed girls, including some clothing, utensils, bedding and more, along with some financial assistance to offset marriage expenses.

​InTouch Foundation will assist in covering the cost of the marriage, The marriage maybe held individually or where there are a number of couples in a particular region group weddings may take place. It costs approximately £500 per wedding, £300 for the wedding day and a further £200 for the gifts to support the marriage of one couple. 

Street Meal distribution (£2 per meal)

We aim to distribute free meals to families living in the slums as well as street distribution.  The aim of the distribution is to provide hot food and drinks to people that are either living in poverty or are homeless. 

Business Start up Grants (£500)

We aim to transform lives by providing business start up grants to individuals and their families. Individuals and families will be carefully selected and then provided a grant of up to £500 to help them start up a business to provide an income.

Orphans (£60)

We aim to cover the cost of education, food, clothing and a gift for orphans. The cost for one orphan per year is only £60

Sahl ibn Sa’d reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers together to illustrate.
