Sponsoring an Orphan for a year
Hamza Arshad is raising money for Islamic Help
Story
Armingly, one child is orphaned every 22 seconds in the world. Life is no doubt hard for these children. Fortunately, there is a system in place today that provides for these children and gives them access to some of the essentials of life such as food, clothing, shelter and even education. Islamic Help’s Sponsor an Orphan campaign strives to improve the livelihood of orphan children who have lost the most important thing in their lives; their parents.
Islamic Help's sponsorship programme aims at providing a haven for orphan children to grow up and pursue their talents in order to become successful individuals and leaders of their community. Currently, Islamic Help is supporting more than 2500 orphans in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.
A few important features of the programme include:
- Educating children to study their way out of poverty and become leaders in their communities
- Psychological support for children who have been victims of war, disaster or suffering
- Extra-curricular activities in addition to studies to help them develop mentally and physically outside of school
- Proper mentoring provided to children with emotional issues and any other developments
- Providing orphans with proper health care, routine check-ups and immunisations
- Adequate shelter arrangement either at an orphanage or with a family
I am raising £360 to sponsor a child in Asia and looking to all my friends and family to donate what you can towards this beautiful cause of looking after an orphan.
Thanks
Hamza
