  • HEALING SYRIA’S HEART   After nearly 14 years of tyranny, Syria stands at a pivotal moment of both hope, freedom and unity. The fundamental transition has come with some extraordinary challenges with almost 7.2 million people are displaced, nearly 70% of people are in desperate poverty and over 90% of infrastructure has been destroyed.   Islamic Relief family has been on the ground for over 18 years in Syria and, since the transition, we have been actively working to address urgent humanitarian needs by distributing heating materials, non-food items, bread, medicine and more.    However, more needs to be done, especially for orphans who suffer the most due to a lack of support.   Since 1986, supporting orphans and children has played an integral part in Islamic Relief’s mission to alleviate poverty worldwide.   As part of this ongoing effort, we will be hosting "Healing Syria's Heart: Transforming the lives of 1000 orphans."    Join us on this important evening to become the lifeline the orphans of Syria need. For those who have lost it ALL and have no one else, be there with the community to raise urgent funds to help the orphans of Syria.   Prepare for an impactful evening featuring:    👉 Talks from community leaders & activists 🍽️ Fundraising dinner 💔 All about Syria’s Orphans   VIC 🗓️ Sat, 8 Feb 2025 🕕 6:00pm 📍 Location: Laila Reception, 451 Sydney Rd, Brunswick VIC 3056 👉 register now: https://lnkd.in/gAj32_kg

  • #Rajab is here – a scared month that marks the beginning of our journey towards #Ramadan! ✨ It’s a time for planting spiritual seeds, so we can tend to them and prepare our hearts for Ramadan in the best way possible. 🌱 What seeds will you sow? It could be reconnecting with the Qur’an, making daily duaas a habit, or increasing in khushoo (still serenity) during prayer. 💙 May Allah SWT accept our good deeds and intentions, and allow us to reach Ramadan – ameen. 💫
