MOROCCO WINTER PROJECT 2013- FEEDING 100 FAMILIES

MOROCCAN WINTER PROJECT 2013- FEEDING 100 FAMILIES

"And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive,  [Saying], "We feed you only for the countenance of Allah . We wish not from you reward or gratitude." SOORAH AL-INSAN 76:8-9

Having traveled and witnessed the living conditions of our brothers and sisters living in Moroccan villages, I can honestly say that some of them are living in the most terrible conditions I have ever seen. The majority are so poor that they live in basic tin houses with very little food and clothes. Many suffer from illnesses but cannot afford to buy medicine or visit a good doctor. Their houses are so fragile and poorly built that when it rains the water travels through into the house as well as the winter cold.

This being our biggest project yet, we aim to feed 100 families during the winter. We want to be able to provide them with food packages to help them get through the winter and to ease one less burden upon them in shaa Allaah.

Each food package costs £30 and will provide them with the following;

A big sack of flour
2 kg of rice
5 ltr of oil
2 kg of lentils
2 kg of potato
1 kg of white beans
1 kg of tomato
1 kg of salt
Big bag of washing powder to wash their clothes

To feed 100 families we need to raise £3000 to ensure each family gets a food package in shaa Allaah.  I ask you for the sake of Allaah please help with whatever you can and help us feed the poor this winter.

The sayings of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him)
"Among the best deeds are to feed the poor and the deserving and to greet those whom you know and those whom you do now know"
 Saheeh Al-Bukhari Hadeeth No. 826 Book 2 Chapter 6
