Safwan goes to Jordan

This December, I am embarking on a mission to Jordan with Greengate Trust to support Syrian and Palestinian refugees living in refugee camps. This cause is deeply personal to me, as the ongoing crisis has displaced countless families, forcing them to seek refuge in camps under unimaginable conditions.

Jordan is home to over 2 million registered Palestinian refugees, the largest number in any country served by the UNRWA. These refugees are enduring extreme hardship. Families are struggling to survive without access to basic necessities like food, clean water, and proper shelter. The overcrowded camps they live in are especially vulnerable during the harsh winter months.

We will be on the ground, delivering food parcels, hot meals, and essential supplies to those who need them most. Each £50 food parcel is packed with nutritious items to sustain a family, while hot meals bring warmth and comfort to those who are going without. Your donations make this possible, and 100% of your contributions will go directly to those in need.

As Muslims, charity is a fundamental part of our faith, and I am reminded of the words of our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him), who said:

• “The believer’s shade on the Day of Resurrection will be his charity.”
• “He is not a believer whose stomach is filled while the neighbor to his side goes hungry.”

These words echo deeply, reminding us that our duty is not fulfilled until we ensure that our brothers and sisters are cared for. By supporting this mission, you can help restore dignity to those suffering in refugee camps.

I humbly ask you to donate generously to this cause. Your support will not only provide immediate relief to refugees in dire need, but it will also be a lasting investment in the lives of those who have been displaced.

As we approach the winter months, time is of the essence. Every donation—no matter how big or small—makes a difference. Please, give whatever you can to help me reach my £5000 target. Together, we can make an enormous impact on the lives of our brothers and sisters who are suffering.

Thank you for your generosity and support.
