Assalamualikum,  some of you may know that recently I braced myself and along with some family members and the Human Appeal team,  I embarked on a trek to climb Mount Snowdon.  However due to weather conditions, we only completed half of it.  The guide told us it was too dangerous to complete the whole trek to the peak. 

In aid of sponsoring orphans, inshaaAllah I will be joining the team again on 4th December with the hope to complete the whole trek as the sun rises. 

Now, with your help and support; I would like to raise money to sponsor 12,868 orphans across nine countries; Iraq, Lebanon, Macedonia, Palestine, Pakistan, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Syria and Yemen.

Snowdon, the highest peak in England and Wales, is often conquered during the daytime, but how about hiking through the night with only your head torch as guide, hoping to reach the summit just before the sun rises and illuminates the lush green valleys below?

Why are we doing this crazy CHALLENGE!

There are an estimated 153 million orphans worldwide, with around 5,700 more children becoming orphans, every day. In any community, orphans are always one of the most vulnerable groups, often facing hunger, disease, exploitation and extreme cycles of poverty that they need help to break out of.

Your sponsorship will help a child to break that cycle, and give them the opportunity that all children deserve – a chance to be healthy, protected, and educated.

Our Orphan Sponsorhip programme helps you to support an orphan’s daily life, and their future.

£35 per month helps to cover the cost of food, shelter, clothes, healthcare and learning materials. That’s just £1.15 per day! To qualify for sponsorship, the child must stay in school, ensuring they gain the education and skills for a better tomorrow.

We also provide training to their mothers or caregivers about protection, helping to safeguard them from common risks and dangers.

With the spread of COVID-19, orphaned children are facing more insecurity than ever, and we urgently need more sponsors for hundreds of vulnerable children across nine countries.

You can choose where you sponsor a child, as well as their age and gender – or you can leave it to our Orphan and Child Welfare Team to select the child in the most urgent need of sponsorship.

Why sponsor through Human Appeal?

Currently, our supporters are sponsoring 12,868 orphans across nine countries; Iraq, Lebanon, Macedonia, Palestine, Pakistan, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Syria and Yemen.
