Spreading Their Stories Drive

Posted by admin in July 19th 2009 under: DateDrive Tags: canada, edhi foundation, refugees, relief work

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

This drive is phase one of a million dollars campaign.

The challenge is how to turn your pleasant words into a million dollar for http://www.edhifoundation.com/ through ReliefWorks Canada [Disclaimer: HalfDate stays away from divisive topics including music].

Goal: We want to collect 50 comments from committed volunteers (who pledge to help publicizing phase 2 of this campaign)

Deadline: Aug 22, 2009

Here is how:

Look at these children for 30 seconds and imagine them as your children
Close your eyes for 30 seconds and imagine that on the Day of Judgement, Allah will forgive all of your sins just because you helped these children
Now, type what you did for them to earn Allah’s pleasure (e.g. I told all my friends and we raised $1000 for them). Click here to type.

If you want to join the volunteer group of this project send an empty email to sadaqahgate at gmail dot com (this is an autoresponse email, so don’t send anything personal)

i would spread the word out through whichever connection i have so that children like them would be helped in every community around the world insh’Allah. In order to deserve Allah’s pleasure i would get my friends together and we would raise money to help the kids enjoy their childhood while they still could. And i would also make du’a for all the kids like them around the world.

There is no trust more sacred than the one the world holds with children. There is no duty more important than ensuring that their rights are respected, that their welfare is protected, that their lives are free from fear and want and that they can grow up in peace. My doa for the children..may they all grow up to be a better adult and lets spread the peace! May Allah bless you..little khalifah! Amin.

U may feel sadness and sorrow in the photo atmosphere but u’ll sense also light and hope from the children’s eyes, and this is what keeps humanity intact.. the hope for a better world without poverty, war or fear.

Remember ur duty as a Muslim in this world.. to be Khalifah – the vicegerent of Allah (SWT) in Earth.

Esselamu alejkum brothers and sisters,

I am always emotional when I see our brothers and sisters suffering and especially young, innocent children in despair because they don’t have a family, a house, food, clothes. There are 2 billion muslims in the world, you can’t tell me that we can’t if we put our minds to it and if we organize and work together tht we can’t change the status quo, and make sure that every child in the world has a shelter, someone to look after them, food and clothes. So I would love to help out in this cause. Can somebody tell me where we can donate please.

shaidashafi Said,

August 22nd, 2009 @1:17 pm

Allah Has blessed us with everything we need and fullfilled out basic needs which is something that shoould be done for all human beings to have food, clothing shelter… giving charity and sadaqua Allah will reward us…even if we cannot do more we can donate something to help these children to have their basic needs met. It is out duty to help our muslim brothers and sisters as on the day of Judgement when it is asked what did we do to help people like these what are we going to say to Allah? everything in life is a test …May Allah grant us the knowlege compassion and love to give…..I will forward this email to everyone of my mailing list ..create awareness through facebook and inshallah will donate ….

subhan Allah…this video really made me realize that how unfear it when in one part of the world or even in one house children are spoiled because they are expose to sooooo many things only their negligent parents and on the other part of the world or even in the very next house children are deprived of soooo many things and they are happy even when they are been given on ice cube……we muslims should be more charitable than any one else but really we are losing this habbit…jazakum Allah khair for creating this sites in order to revive this habbit of ours….we should always strive to be the hands who gives all the time not the hands which always expects to receive something without any effort….

zarmina khan Said,

August 24th, 2009 @5:19 am

SubHanAllah…I will spread this URL, and inshaAllah put the URL on my MySpace, to help spread the message. InshaAllah, when my money is better, I will donate for this/other causes. May Allah swt bless these children and others in poor situations, and may Allah swt protect us and our families from such circumstances. May we increase in iman and in our good deeds for the sake of Allah swt, not for show.

RAMADAN MUBARAK

May Allah swt accept our fast and prayers, and continue to guide us and keep us on the Right Path, that inshaAllah, we may reach Jennah.

Masha Allah they work tirelessly to try and accommodate each and every request that comes in.
