Story

السلام عليكم

(Peace and blessing be upon you)

My good friend Taju visited Nairobi, Kenya in March 2020. After seeing his pictures and videos of Nairobi and what type of condition the people of Kenya are in, I have decided this year I want to help people who are in similar conditions in Gambia by fundraising.


The money I will be fundraising will go towards building a Madrassa (School) in Gambia, West Africa.

Most of these children are from deprived backgrounds where their day to day struggles includes the shortage of food, clean water, sanitation, and access to education.

Youth aged between 5 and 14 years are forced to forego education due to extreme poverty. We hope to support Madrassas (schools) in the rural areas and the children who live in Gambia.

Children who attend school are less likely to face the dangers and offers from gangs who are ready to assimilate them into gangs and criminality and worse traffic them into sexually abusive and punishing work.

Many children work on plantations in backbreaking work while others work in back street alleys in dangerous and horrendous conditions.

Children who cannot find work are often left with only the option to beg leaving them prey for traffickers.
Schools provide a safe place for children to grow and learn. They are places where children can seek help, advice, and be inspired.

Our ambition is to support rural and slum schools to provide young people with the education and opportunities afforded to our children. Support Muslim Charity to help children aspire to be who they want to be.

So I ask for your kind generosity in helping me build a Madrassa in Gambia.
