Story

ZAKAT ELIGIBLE

This year we, Soulymane, Suly & Aadil, are taking on the challenge to do our part in helping the Earthquake victims of Syria, we are aspiring raise enough funds to build 8 apartment homes in Syria.

These apartments will be fully facilitate with electrical and water connections. They will be earthquake-proof to provide some reassurance to the families that will occupy these homes. Once built, the homes and their ownership will be handed over to the families.

Each apartment will have 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, living room and a bathroom, making them permanent homes suitable for families of 4 or 5 people.

The cost to build an apartment block in total is £24,000. Each block will have 8 apartment homes making each apartment cost just £3,000.

Please help us provide a home for our brothers, our sisters and our children in Syria. Help us help them.

Thank you for #MakingWaves & #SavingLives
