Save the last Rohingya children in Arakan, Myanmar


SCHOOLS FOR ROHINGYA IN ARAKAN (RAKHINE STATE), MYANMAR



OBJECTIVE

The fund is for the purpose of building schools to educate the Rohingya children in Arakan. Education is the way for the Rohingya to fight for the return of their rights, including citizenship and the rights as citizens of Myanmar.



WHY WE NEED TO BUILD SCHOOLS FOR THE ROHINGYA IN ARAKAN



The Myanmar government began taking steps implementing the ethnic cleansing policy to totally get rid of the Rohingya from Myanmar in 1962.


In 1982, the Myanmar government introduced the Citizenship law and through this law, they disqualified the Rohingya from becoming the citizen of Myanmar. 


Within a short period, more than a million Rohingya were stateless and concurrently they lost the protection of the state as what a citizen should get. Immediately, they a soft target of the extremists which now find a new legitimacy to kill, rob and evicted the Rohingya from their land of births.



Some of them escape to the neighbouring countries fearing for their safety after being tortured, some family members were killed, the women were raped, the villages were destroyed, livestock were stolen, rice fields were raided and burnt, they were stopped from practicing Islam and many other forms of cruelties that we don’t see in other countries.



However, some 400,000 still decided to stay put in Myanmar even after the big exodus of  Rohingya escaping into Bangladesh in August 2017. 




They have to endure and tolerate all the inhumane conditions befallen upon them by the military and the extremists.



The children were denied from going to school at all levels including higher education. After more than 60 years of injustices, 80% of the Rohingya of all ages are illiterate. 





If we allow the situation to continue the future look very bleak for the Rohingya and eventually they will be totally “cleansed” from Myanmar.



It is time for all of us to change all these. 





We have to do our part to help the Rohingya in Arakan to get education particularly the children. 





We have to help them to fight back but not through war but through education.


HOW DO WE SPENT THE MONEY SO FAR?

We have so far completed 3 schools (and another one school 95% completed).

The fourth school is already fully funded and 95% completed. Meanwhile the last school for 2019, school number 5 is still partly funded. (Another $3500 to complete fully funded)

HOW MANY MORE SCHOOLS FOR THE COMING YEARS?

The target is to build between 3 to 4 schools a year. 


Most of the schools in Arakan have been damaged or they are operating in old and dilapidated buildings. It is dangerous for children and teachers too. 


Furthermore, it is not conducive neither is comfortable for the children to learn in that kind of condition.


LET US TOGETHER MAKE A DREAM A REALITY


Therefore, we are hereby making an appeal to our Muslim brothers and sisters through this international Muslim crowdfunding platform to help us to fulfill the dream of the Rohingya children in Arakan for an opportunity to get educated. 



Please donate generously so that the progress of Schools for Rohingya Project can be accelerated, Insya-Allah.

Feed the hungry orphans and needy in Kashmir

Salam dearest brothers and sisters,



Last year, we endeavored to reach the impoverished families across Kashmir but fell short, leaving many in need. This year, we are committed to not only continuing our support but expanding it. Our goal is ambitious: to distribute essential food aid to approximately 3,000 families, focusing especially on those we couldn't assist last Ramadan. Each donation you make contributes towards fulfilling your Zakat and perpetuates the tradition of giving, as encouraged by the Prophet Muhammad. In doing so, you're not merely donating but providing a beacon of hope to those facing the harshest of realities.




In response to the ongoing crisis, we are urgently appealing for your support to help an additional 300 families by the end of Shawwal. These families, particularly those headed by single parents and those caring for orphans, face unimaginable hardships every day. The prolonged conflict in Kashmir has orphaned countless children and left many women widowed, all of whom rely on the compassion and generosity of people like you. With each food pack costing just USD 30, your contribution can sustain a family of five to six members for up to six weeks, offering them not just sustenance but a lifeline. Let's rally together to make an impactful difference in their lives, continuing the noble practice of giving that defines our humanity.

Urgent: Help Provide Shelter to Families in Crisis

Urgent: Help Provide Shelter to Families in Crisis

After devastating floods in Pakistan last year, families are still without proper shelter. Our plan is to replace makeshift tents with proper mud houses for 200 families at USD 1200 each. We urgently seek your support for our Community Shelter Project in Nawabshah, Pakistan. 



The background of the crisis is severe, with 33 million Pakistanis affected, and winter is approaching. We face a funding gap, but construction is set to begin in July. Your support can make a significant difference. A donation of USD 1200 can provide one family with a secure shelter.


Iltizam Relief Society, active since 2013, has been impacting lives across 12 countries. By the end of 2023, we aim to establish a disabled rehabilitation center in Pakistan, inshaAllah.


Your support matters. Please consider contributing to our vital Community Shelter Project. To donate or learn more, visit this campaign here.


Thank you for making a difference.
