Help the orphans and children of Palestine and honour the memory of Reem
"He who does not show mercy towards children, no mercy would be shown to him." - Sahih Muslim
£40 pm/£480 pa - Sponsor a Palestinian Child.
‘Soul of My Soul’ - In Memory of Reem
Sponsor an orphaned child in Gaza, in honour of Reem, lovingly dubbed ‘soul of my soul’ by her grandfather, Khaled. May Allah have mercy on both of them.
Every life is precious. In Gaza, the unbearable loss of an innocent child has happened over and again since October 2023. Even with the ceasefire, children continue to be killed in Gaza and the West Bank. Since October 2023, over 17,000 children have been killed. Throughout the war, an average of 10 children a day lost a limb and more than 38,000 children have been orphaned or have no adult left to care for them.
Orphans in Gaza are facing the added brutality of struggling for food and shelter, often while looking after younger siblings. The children of Palestine have endured months of famine-like conditions. 60,000 children need treatment for acute malnutrition, and the effects of malnourishment in childhood will continue to have effects on their lives and health for years to come.
This is your chance to take a Palestinian child into your heart and soul through the lifechanging care and protection of sponsorship, providing them with the security of food, shelter, healthcare, and clothing.
A beautiful Sunnah
Prophet Muhammed was himself an orphan who grew up to care for orphans. He promised those who followed this Sunnah a special place in Jannah. It’s just one example of the wonderful community of Islam - supporting the most vulnerable within our ummah.
The mercy of orphan sponsorship
For an orphan, not only do they have to cope the loss of their parents, but they suddenly have to think about how they will eat, how they will afford to survive.
Currently, 6,957 orphans are registered with Human Appeal and awaiting sponsors to help them regain their childhood.
The ummah must step up and support orphaned children Gaza.
This Ramadan, entrust your sponsorship to our 33 years of experience in caring for orphaned children.
Sponsoring an orphan isn't just following the legacy of the Messenger (PBUH); it also assists the child's mother or caregiver with the expenses for:
• Food
• Clothing
• Healthcare
• Housing
• School supplies
Honour Gaza’s lost children
Join us in honouring the lost children of Gaza while helping those who have been left vulnerable and alone.
Remember the thousands of innocent children who are now with Reem in Jannah by calling for an absolute ceasefire and the immediate opening of borders.
Be a mercy to an orphaned child in Gaza. Take them into your heart and soul through the mercy of sponsorship and reap the multiplied rewards of this blessed Sunnah.
Protection and transparency
This Ramadan, rely on our 33 years of expertise in nurturing orphaned children. Across all 14 countries where we sponsor orphans, we have a dedicated child safeguarding officer is in place. All staff working with children receive comprehensive training in child protection. Our local staff check in on all sponsored orphans to make sure they are well, in school, and receiving the care you intended, and we transparently report back to you how the child is in your biannual reports.
We also train mothers and caregivers on child protection, helping them to protect these orphans from common risks. We also work to help families with orphans in other ways, such as by training widowed mothers to have a livelihood to support her orphaned children.
