HELP DELIVER 1 MILLION IFTAR MEALS TO STARVING FAMILIES IN YEMEN

Last Ramadan, we had a goal to provide 1,000,000 Iftar meals to the people of Yemen.

But, we exceeded that goal and were able to provide 1,000,500 Iftar meals instead! All with the grace of Allah and the help of generous donors like yourself!

This year–once again, our goal is to provide 1 Million Iftar Meals to the people of Yemen. But we need your help to achieve this milestone and save, sustain, and nourish a million lives (or more) in Yemen this Ramadan.

Today:

⭕ More than 17 million Yemenis skip meals everyday because they have no other choice.

⭕ More than 6 million are on the brink of famine.

⭕ 2.2 million children under 5 require treatment for acute malnutrition.

Yemen had already been facing one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises since 2011.But in the aftermath of Yemen’s solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Palestine, the country’s situation has only worsened.

Now, children in Yemen are battling three constant threats all over again: bombs, starvation, and disease. There is nowhere that’s safe for them. Their schools have become war zones, and their playgrounds have turned into graveyards.

They had no part in creating this crisis, yet they continue to pay for it with their own lives?

Don’t these children, and their innocent families, deserve better?

We cannot put a stop to the looming conflict, but we can help soften its impact. Let’s ease their struggles and alleviate their hunger by sharing an iftar for as little as $2.

Adam and this refugee family are only two out of the millions of needy children and families in Yemen, who do not even have access to basic human necessities.

With Ramadan around the corner, they’re worried they will have nothing to break their fasts with. What can they possibly hope to buy to satisfy their hunger when all they earn in a day is what you would call ‘loose change’?

So, will you give them some hope this Ramadan?

Something more than just loose change?

There are currently 1.8 BILLION Muslims in the world.

If all of us paid 2.5% of our wealth in Zakat during this blessed month, we would be able to collect trillions—enough to push Yemen and the rest of the world toward Zero Hunger.

Interesting, isn’t it? How Islam provided solutions to problems much before we encountered them…

Now, all we need to do is harness the power of Zakat to transform lives.

But, there’s more. You can also…

Despite trying our best not to, we all give in to the whisperings of Shaytan from time to time. Of course, this should be followed by sincere repentance to Allah with a firm belief in His mercy and forgiveness.

But our beloved Prophet (PBUH) has shared with us another surefire way to get our minor sins forgiven and to obtain freedom from the fire of Jahannam.

The Messenger of Allah said,
“Whoever provides Iftār for a fasting person in it (Ramadān), then that shall be forgiveness for his (the feeder’s) [minor] sins and freedom from the fire. And for such a feeder shall be the same reward as the one who fasted (whom he fed) without that person’s reward being decreased in the least.” [Ibn Khazaimah]

The Good Deed Charity team is already on the ground putting 100% of your donations to work. Feeding 1 person Iftar can cost as little as $2 per meal.

It costs $2 for each Vegetarian Iftar meal and $2.50 for each Chicken Iftar meal.

Compared to last year, these prices have DOUBLED, which means the costs have increased within Yemen, and there are even MORE people there that need our help now than they did earlier. Which means, YOUR help is crucial to their survival!

$2 (£1.58) can provide 1 vegetarian meal
$2.50 (£1.98) can provide 1 chicken meal

The entire donation amount gets sent to our Yemeni team on the ground

We record and show you the impact of your donations

Did you know…?

Every 10 minutes, 1 child dies from preventable causes like hunger.

They are so hungry they’re eating their own hands.

Mothers are being forced to choose between either providing life-saving medicines for their sick children or feeding the rest.

More than 2.2 MILLION children under the age of 5 are suffering through acute malnutrition. Without our help, they will succumb to extreme hunger and lose their battle with life! Children who die in this way undergo immense suffering as their vital organ functions slow down gradually before they eventually stop.

They are reeling with grief, and this Ramadan is your window of opportunity to turn their lives around for the better.

Last year your donations meant that we were able to distribute 1,000,500 iftar meals across 35 areas of the country.

This year, we are aiming to distribute the same amount of iftar meals across 35 areas as well.

Over 3,080 generous supporters have already assisted us in saving countless children from the brink of starvation. They can already see the rewards of their noble deed come to life.

For as little as $2 (£1.58) per meal, you can help us reach our goal this Ramadan.

Will you be one of them and join our mission?

We have also had the privilege to open two bakeries that provide over 120,000 people with bread each month and are planning to increase the number of bakeries across Yemen.

With your support, Good Deed Charity was able to serve more than 206,000 Iftar meals during Ramadan, and now you can help us feed them all year round!

Through our FREE public bakeries in Yemen, EVERY Yemeni, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity/race, and religion can access fresh bread.

At our current capacity, we’re already able to provide 8,000 pieces of bread daily through our current locations.

One Hundred Percent [100%]

That’s how much of your money will go directly to the people in need.

Since Good Deed Charity is directly on the ground . . .

We can afford to have ZERO Admin costs.
Which means when you donate with GDC, every penny of your donation goes towards feeding people and saving lives.

Not a penny wasted.

That’s the Good Deed Charity promise.

We have worked with Charity Right, Mercy Bakery, Pious Projects, Crisis Aid, Heroic Hearts, Slough Islamic Trust, and Imdad Relief Foundation to provide life-saving aid to the people in Yemen.
