We are fundraising on behalf of Ummah Welfare Trust's Orphans of Shaam project page, they aim to help support 50 newly-created orphans. We aim to fundraise for just one, which will cost £408. 

The Syria crisis has left an estimated 600,000 children orphaned. Their fathers, and in many cases mothers, have been killed or abducted, leaving these precious children to grow up all alone.

The situation of Syria's orphans and widows continues to be Ummah Welfare Trust's foremost concern. The charity has increased its sponsorship programme across the country and needs generous donors to help support 50 newly-created orphans.

The never-ending bombings however are leaving more children daily without parents, and in need of desperate help. It's vital that we use our wealth to protect these newly-created orphans from poverty and degradation.

Prophet Muhammed (saw) said, 'I and the person who looks after an orphan and provides for him, will be in Paradise like this,' (putting his index and middle fingers together). - Saheeh al-Bukhari
