IHH, that has provided iftar meals, distributed food packages and provisions, the zakat, sadaqa, fitr and donations during Ramadan for more than a quarter of a century irrelevant of the distance, to those in need in regions affected by war, oppression and natural disasters, brought a smile to the faces of orphans and the needy this year again distributing aid to a total of 3 million people.

In Ramadan, 95 IHH teams consisting of 393 officials, volunteers and donators travelled long distances to 5 continents with the slogan “Now is the Time for Sharing.” IHH teams knocked on the doors of the needy, refugees and orphaned families in these regions spreading the blessings of this month to distant countries.

As in the case of every year, we provided support to the orphans and their families; organized iftar meals for orphan families, distributed education aid and eid clothing to orphans, gave iftar meals and distributed cash aid for orphans in cases of need.
