For Muslims around the world, it is now the holy month of Ramadan. Through fasting in this month, many of us will be all too familiar with the pangs of hunger and thirst, but we also know after the sun sets we will have a wholesome meal to look forward to. However, thousands of families across the UK will not have this.

Shocking figures from the Office of National Statistics show that more than 6 people a month perish from starvation in England. According to the Trussell Trust, over 1,332,952  three day emergency food supplies were given to people in crisis in the past year - around 500,000 of those went to children. Research shows that half of the mums under the age of 25 have to skip meals to feed their children. This is having a devastating impact on families.

Last year, The10thDay managed to collect 1064kg of food which we donated to Trussell Trust, which provided 3665 meals to those in need in the North West of England. 

This year, in collaboration with IUS Aid, we are aiming to collect a massive 2400kg of food to donate to those poor families who are currently struggling to feed themselves, but to do this we need your help. This Ramadan, let us help those who are less fortunate and show that we care. Any amount you can donate can make a big difference to someone's life - no amount is too small.

With your donations, we can help people from all backgrounds and all walks of life who are struggling to get by on a daily basis. Together we can make a difference.Thank you for your continued support.
