Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Prophet Muhammad said: 

He is not a believer who eats his full and leaves his neighbour hungry.” 

(Hadith)


* Did you know right now more than 800 million people around the world are hungry?
* Did you know a child dies every five seconds from hunger-related causes?
* 10 million children under the age of five die every year, mostly from preventable  illnesses


As simple as it sounds, food distribution to impoverished communities both during times of crisis such as war or famine and at other times saves lives and is an important part of our work.

During the most important month in the Islamic calendar; the period known as Ramadan when fasting is obligatory during the entire month; SMT has been working on behalf of the British Muslim community to bring happiness and joy to poor and needy people across the world.

Imagine spending the whole day fasting and then finding no food in your kitchen to open your fast with? Imagine having to tell your children that they must go without a full meal?
This is the situation thousands face around the world every day.

All year around and especially in the Month of Ramadan each year SMT’s Food Aid Programme provides food packages for the poor and needy in Pakistan, Kashmir, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mali, Ivory Coast, Uganda, Tanzania and Syria. Each pack consists of sugar, rice, oil, flour, Lentils and dates. As well of these individual packs, save the mothers Trust will also be providing daily cooked Iftari meals in the local mosques which will be open for the community.

SMT not only provides food and support through various types of donations but it also conducted a community capacity building programme tackling health, education, environment, nutrition and social issues which affect the local population.

Over the past years Save the Mothers Trust has carried out a food aid programme for the poor throughout the year and especially during the month of Ramadan.

In the last year alone through the generous support of the public SMT was able to provide food packages to more than 20,000 families in Pakistan, Kashmir & Africa.


Please donate generously and ensure these poor families are able to spend the whole of Ramadan in ease.

£30 provides a monthly provision for one family.
