In the shadow of attacks, facing deprivation and siege, we do not abandon our brothers and sisters in Gaza as they welcome the holy month of Ramadan. As Valide Humanitarian Aid Association, we continue to deliver the zakat and sadaqah of our benefactors to those in need in the region, even under the most challenging conditions.
With the arrival of the blessed month of Ramadan, access to basic foodstuffs has become vitally important in the Gaza Strip. Despite the ongoing difficulties, our field teams in the region worked with great dedication to deliver 50 food parcels to the doors of families in need, to be shared at their iftar tables.
As part of our distribution efforts, we also visited a family who had become physically disabled as a result of the attacks. While delivering your donations in person, we conveyed not only a food parcel but also the greetings and prayers of their brothers and sisters in Turkey. This bridge of brotherhood, built amidst pain and deprivation, once again reminded us of the abundance of Ramadan, which multiplies as it is shared.
In Gaza, where Ramadan is being observed under difficult living conditions and limited resources, we at Valide Humanitarian Aid Association stand by our brothers and sisters. We take comfort in delivering iftar packages, prepared with the support of our benefactors, to families struggling to survive in Gaza's narrow streets and tent camps.
As Valide Humanitarian Aid Association, we are bringing the blessings of Ramadan beyond borders, to the heart of Africa, Nigeria. We have not forgotten our student brothers and sisters who are striving to continue their education under difficult conditions; with your support, we shared hundreds of meals at iftar tables, united by bonds of brotherhood.
At the Ramat Mosque in Nigeria, we rolled up our sleeves to ensure that the recitations and taraweeh prayers performed throughout the blessed month of Ramadan could be conducted in a spirit of reverence. We completed the necessary renovations to our mosque and procured and installed a new sound system.
