We are hoping to help a few hundred  widows and disadvantaged families during the Holy month of Ramadhan. Please, join us in this charitable task. 

“Alms are for the poor and the needy …………. [9:60]

Sameera Foundation is developing a Ramadhan Food Gift programme for widows and poor families in the villages of  Chach area, Pakistan. We hope to provide uncooked food items of about 20 Kg bags ( Squash or Sharbat e Rooh Afza bottle, dates, sugar, tea, ghee, cooking oil, basin, lentils and milk packets etc). We hope this will help a poor family to start the Holy month of Ramadhan peacefully and make Duaa for the donors. We hope, Inshah Allah, to help a few hundred deserving families and in this connection look forward for your donation from your charity, Sadaqah or Zakat or Fidhya.  The cost of one food bag is about £10 to £12. We promise to keep the programme transparent. We shall provide details to all the donors about the total donation received and where and on whom it was spent. The donors will get the full list of recipients with their names, addresses and signatures or thumb impressions. We look forward for your generous donation for the Holy month of Ramadhan  Food Programme to assist the poor families. If you wish to support this worthy cause, please let us know by e-mail. You could donate online or send directly to our accounts. The details are available on this website.
