Malawi Iftar 2020 Food Pack Distribution
22 May 2020/ 28 Ramadan 1441
The One Humanity team on the ground in Malawi were able to distribute 660 food packs sponsored by Colours of Hope to 660 poor and needy Muslim families from 9 villages in the Mulanje district in the Southern region of Malawi.
This area is considered one of the many poor areas where no food aid had reached them prior to this distribution in Ramadhan.
The beneficiaries received food packs which included 12 kg maize flour, 2 kg rice, 2 kg beans, 1 kg salt, 1 litre cooking oil, 1 unit matches, 1 packet candles, 450 g juice powder, 50 g tea, 2 kg sugar, 990 g soya pieces.
May Allah accept from everyone!
Waterloo is one of Sierra Leone's most ethnically diverse cities, as it is home to many of Sierra Leone's ethnic groups. It is the second largest city in the Western Area of Sierra Leone and a suburb of Freetown.
There are high rates of poverty and malaria in this area.
Thanks to the One Nation team and all of our wonderful donors. May Allah accept from us all.
Lebanon Iftar Appeal 2020
The economic crisis that hit Lebanon in October 2019 has been compounded by the CoVid-19 lockdown since March 2020, grinding the country to a halt.
For many Syrian and Palestinian families already facing difficulties in meeting their basic survival needs, this crisis makes life so much tougher.
With such living conditions and Lebanon’s weak infrastructure and public services, the chances of Syrian and Lebanese communities meeting their social, economic, and medical needs continue to diminish.
Thank you to the One Nation team. May Allah Most High bless every person out there making a difference in uplifting the lives of these people.

Uyghur Iftar Appeal 2020
The distribution was of two types:
1. From Lonely Orphans Uyghur School to Uyghur widows and vulnerable families
2. Door to door distribution to exiled Uyghur households
Due to lock down, as well as inability to come out, the only way to get food to these families is by doing door to door distributions.
Alhamdulillah! May Allah accept from us all.

Is it not amazing that if you give water to someone, like building a well, for as long as they are benefitted by the water of that well, you will be rewarded by the Almighty. Unending goodness long after you leave this earth. A kindness that just keeps giving.
