Ramadan 10K Run · 23 March 2025
PLEASE SHARE – Because of YOU Others May Donate
Insh’Allah (God willing) on Sunday 23rd March 2025 I will be running my 12th Annual Ramadan 10K Run (whilst FASTING ALMOST 16 Hours) in Bradford 2025 City of Culture - finish line will be at the iconic Lister Park. Yes, I know sounds crazy with no food or drink!
I am doing it for Nazim Ali Foundation in partnership with Keighley-based Green Crescent Aid Uk’s (100% Donation Policy) ‘Burundi (Africa) New Homes Project’ in which poor families (Widows, Orphans, Disabled & Elderly) are being moved from makeshift homes that offer little protection from thewinters & unbearably hot in summers to safe & secure new 2 room homes including a kitchen & bathroom. These homes will improve lives with a clean place to live & help to fight off death from diseases.
EACH HOME COSTS JUST £2,200 (ZAKAT APPLICABLE) & donors will receive full feedback (personalised plaque & videos). Insh’Allah I am hoping with YOUR SUPPORT to raise at least £55,000 so that we can build 25 new homes for vulnerable & poor families.
I have worked with Green Crescent Aid UK which is a experienced registered charity for over 8 years now having visited Malawi on a Self-Funded Deployment in Oct 2019 & have done many other projects with them such as 131 House Transformations in Malawi, providing almost 800 Live Goats to poor villagers in Malawi & so forth. They have impressed me with their fantastic work & provide full feedback.
For those who give the Full £2,200 you can have a personalised Plaque (If you would like this please contact the number below so it can be arranged).

For over 27 years I have been at the forefront of community & humanitarian initiatives at the local, national & international levels receiving national awards in the process. I work as a Careers Adviser in 3 inner city schools & take annual leave for my charity trips & self-fund them. To date I have raised almost £1 million for charitable causes both home & abroad. For the last year every Tuesday I have run the Nazim Ali Foundation 'Khidma Community Kitchen' sponsored by Bradford-based Saveco Cash & providing warm 2 course meals to the homeless & destitute. Prior to this for 10 years I volunteered weekly at another Soup Kitchen in Bradford). Over the last 12 years as part of the 'Creating Smiles Gifts Initiative' I have set up I've made 45 visits to hospitals childrens wards at Bradford Royal Infirmary & Airedale Hospital Childrens Wards distributing thousands of pounds worth of gifts to poorly children. I have distributed in person Aid to the Turkey/Syria border on 7 occasions, the Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh, Iraqi refugees in war torn Mosul (Iraq), poverty stricken Malawi (Africa), Pakistan Pre-Ramadan Deployments in 2022 & 2023 & to refugees in France & Belgium, Lebanon Ramadan Deployment in 2024 & the Jordan Pre-Ramadan Deployment in Feb 2025 all in the last 10 years. In addition, I have fundraised almost £53,000 from my 2020 Ramadan 10k Run & project managed 116 house transformation in Malawi & provided full video feedback for each house. Furthermore, £78,751 fundraised from my 2021 Ramadan 10K Run to build 63 New 2 Room Homes for Syrian Refugees in Northern Syria with full video feedback for each house. From my Ramadan 2022 fundraising I raised £66,559 to build 35 New Homes for the Poor in Sindh, Pakistan (with full video feedback for each house), from my 2023 Ramadan 10K run I raised £66,611 to build 36 New 2 Room Homes in poverty-stricken Uganda (with full video feedback for each house), fundraised £81,400 from my Ramadan 2024 fundraising Run to build 40 New 2 Room Homes in poverty-stricken Afghanistan (with full video feedback for each house).
I will be working full-time as a Careers Adviser& training whilst fasting so I can help the less fortunate. I am eternally thankful to the donors for their kind donations and on-going support which is humbling. It is because of YOU I am able to do what I do and would not be possible without you. Allah Ta'ala bless you all!
