On Sunday 17th of May, a group of 12 people will be running 10 km while fasting to raise money for severely malnourished children in Yemen to raise our target of €12,000 which will provide life saving treatment for 400 children in Yemen suffering from severe malnutrition. The cost of this vital life saving treatment is €30 per child.

The worst humanitarian crisis since world war two has been unfolding in Yemen over the past few years. Every ten minutes a child in Yemen will starve to death. The statistics are truly shocking and we must do more to help our forgotten brothers and sisters in Yemen.

Islamic Relief is the leading humanitarian organisation in Yemen, capable of reaching the most poor and needy people on the ground in the majority of Yemen's provinces. Please donate now and reap the rewards of saving lives during this blessed month.

Allah (swt) says in the Quran 5:32 "Whoever saved a life, it is as if he saved the lives of all of humanity." The prophet Muhammed (pbuh) has also told us that the rewards of sadaqah are multiplied by 70 during the blessed month of Ramadan.

Jazakum Allahu khairan for your support and generosity,
