Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
Given the recent tragedies that have occurred in Beirut, Lebanon, we have decided to use our privileges to help those most in need. Even during a global pandemic, many of us have still been blessed with both health and time. My sister, my cousin and I have decided to each cycle 100 miles in 14 days to raise the much needed funds and aid the emergency appeals to give back to the people of Beirut.
We have chosen to donate to Human Relief Foundation Wales (HRF) who have a team on the ground and more volunteers helping out in the coming days InshaAllah.
HRF is a registered charity that provides emergency relief & assistance including: • Safe water & better sanitation • Food distribution • Health clinics • School kits • Elderly care & support • Doctors training courses • Vocational training.
For ease of accountability and clarity, we have created an Instagram page for anyone that would like to keep up-to-date with our distance and progress: @cyclists4change. Regular updates will be given primarily on that page.
Please donate, share and make dua for our brothers and sisters in need. May Allah SWT grant them shifa and sabr.
Bank transfer of the total amount will be made by the end of August so PLEASE donate by then!
Jazakumullahu khairan. May you all be rewarded for you efforts :)
