Muslim Aid is helping to build and run an orphanage called Beyti for the children under the age of 10 years. This orphanage is situated in Turkey and provides security and opportunity to have a normal live to children who have no parental or carer support.
Children are sent to schools in the surrounding areas of the orphanage
They are assigned a carer inside Beyti to support their education
They are given psychological treatments for relief from their sorrow and pain
Beyti provides clean water for bath, hot and healthy meals for nourishment, clean clothes and most importantly toys
Muslim Aid also distributed 100 boxes of hygiene kits to 100 families in the Daud Al Ali area in Mount Lebanon. Each kit included soap, detergents, sponges, dental hygiene items, toiletries, sanitary items and ointment for children. The Muslim Aid team in Lebanon are also preparing to deliver 900 more hygiene kits to families desperate to keep healthy in their camps.
Please donate generously for your Syrian brothers and sisters.
Your donations go a long way to keep them alive.
Muslim Aid was established in the UK in 1985 by community leaders from 17 Islamic organisations in response to the drought in the Horn of Africa. As a leading and well established faith-based British humanitarian charity, Muslim Aid's work is governed by the teachings of Islam, such as compassion, empathy, generosity and helping others in need. This is implemented through emergency responses and eliminating poverty and its causes by developing innovative and sustainable solutions that enable individuals and their communities to live with dignity.
