IHH launched 2016 Ramadan Activities with ‘The Meaning of Brotherhood’ slogan
IHH, which has been setting iftar tables and distributing food hampers and food aid in Ramadan over the past 20 years, is planning to put a smile of the orphans’ faces this year too.
IHH teams are traveling to five continents in Ramadan to knock on the door of needy, refugee or orphans’ families and deliver aid so that the blessing of Ramadan reaches far ends of the globe.
IHH is conducting activities with ‘The Meaning of Brotherhood’ slogan this year while delivering alms, sadaqah and fitrah charities of donors to the needy in war zones, occupied areas or places hit by natural disasters.
Like every other year orphans and their families will be supported, will be invited to ‘orphans exclusive iftars’, will receive education and stationary aid, eid outfits, food hampers, and financial assistance where needed.
