Ramadan is approaching, and our hearts are filled with excitement. Our preparations for our Ramadan activities in Istanbul and Gaza are ongoing.

As in every Ramadan, this year we are delivering your support through zakat, fitra, and sadaqah donations to hundreds of households where orphaned and needy children live, so they can feel the blessings of Ramadan. We are striving to ease the financial burdens of households with cash assistance.

In Istanbul, we are preparing pre-dawn meal packages for families whose needs we have identified with our field teams. These packages include essential food items such as honey, tahini, molasses, spreadable chocolate, walnuts, dates, jam, tea, cooking oil, and sugar, and we are delivering them to households.

We are also preparing children's packages with Eid clothes, Eid pocket money, and toys, books, and sweets appropriate for the spirit of Ramadan, bringing smiles to the faces of needy children.

Through the children's iftar events we organize, we gather with our volunteers to break fast with needy children and their families. Before the iftar, we enjoy fun activities such as shadow puppet shows and face painting, leaving beautiful memories of Ramadan in the children's hearts.

Meanwhile, in Gaza, our local teams are serving iftar meals to 750 people daily and delivering emergency aid (clean water, Eid clothing, food packages, etc.) according to the needs of the region.

With your sadaqah and zakat donations, you can bring joy to the faces of orphaned and needy children and support those in need both in our country and in crisis regions.
