Story
we have a small charity called, Fatimah's charity (registered number: 1171426) we have 100% donation policy. Any fees will come out from our own personal expenses. About a year ago we started providing for 18 widow families in Pakistan. this costs around £450 a month (£25 per family of 5-6). At the beginning this seemed like a really difficult task but with everyones help, we have now got 5 people who give £25 a month every month, which means we need to raise £325, half of this comes from Nom Noms Grill in Manchester as they support at least half the families so the rest comes from word of mouth and selling items to raise the money.
These widow families desperately need our help, if you see our facebook page, there are many videos showing how these people live their lives and most of their kitchens are empty and they don't know where they are going to get their next meal from. we live in luxury in our nice warm houses with fridges full of food, some near to expiry date as we have too much food, we have wardrobes full of clothes, some clothes never get worn as we have too many and we spend so much money on new expensive designer clothes. but these people have no food no clothes and no clean water! please lets help them, they need it more than we do.
Remember the more we give the more we receive in ways we would have never thought were possible! i will give u my own personal example of this: every month i have many expenses i have to pay for & i am self employed, sometimes i feel my expenses are more than my incomings and i stress about how i am going to provide for my children, i also give large amounts of money to our charity to help the widow families and i encourage my children to give their pocket money in charity. somehow, every month by some miracle, Allah (swt) makes it possible for me to provide for my children. this is how i believe that the more we give the more we receive.
please lets help these people who also deserve to provide for their families. these widows are trying to provide for their families but they are earning pennies for the whole month and its not enough for them, lets not be selfish and share what we can.
