In 2023, my older brother, Kirk, teamed up with Waves Of Positivity, an outstanding trio, who share in his vision of empowering young people. As is their tradition, to keep the blessings of good works ongoing and in keeping with their ethos- to help others- annually they go on a mission to raise money for charity through Islamic Relief.

The mission this year, which Kirk and I (thanks to Kirk!) have now become apart of.... is to run the Jordan Marathon, this October, in the hope of raising £10k for refugee camps, initally set up to temporarily home Palestinian, Syrian and Iraqi refugees fleeing war and terror, however rapidly becoming overwhelmed and under resourced.

(Please see full info below about how your donations will be used).

We humbly request you to support us and help us raise our target of £10k.... please remember.... every little helps. And above all, your prayers and well wishes are always appreciated.

With love,

Saira and Kirk

PROJECT DETAILS

We are taking on the Amman Marathon to support Islamic Relief projects in Jordan.

Jordan is the 6th biggest refugee-hosting country in the world. With a refugee population of over two million, primarily from Palestine, Syria and Iraq, Jordan is a major host of families fleeing violence and conflict.

For just under a quarter of the refugees living in camps across Jordan, conditions are extremely poor. Little or no access to water and electricity increases the risk of disease and vermin infestations, jeopardising people’s health, safety and their lives.

Islamic Relief is supporting refugee families in Jordan to help them face the future with greater stability.

Islamic Relief began its work in Jordan in 1997, to support the largest Palestinian camp in the country and in 2011 when the Syrian crisis first escalated, Islamic Relief was among the first to respond.

Islamic Relief has provided vital aid over the years, donate to my page now and continue to support their lifesaving work.
