Opening words from our<br />

Country Director<br />

Assalaamu 'Alaikum: Greetings of Peace, The past few years have seen disasters<br />

and calamities following each other like beads falling off a string. Floods,<br />

earthquakes, famine, war and civil conflict continue to make the life of millions<br />

across our planet increasingly difficult.<br />

The Al-Imdaad Foundation believes that what counts in life is not the mere fact<br />

that we have lived, but the difference we have made to the lives of others that will<br />

determine the significance of the life we lead. Thus, both at home and abroad we<br />

strive to respond to poverty, crises and suffering wherever and whenever. We have<br />

been responding to devastating earthquakes in Nepal, Chile, Pakistan, and Ecuador,<br />

and deadly flooding in Malaysia, India and Sri Lanka. We have also continued our<br />

projects in Gaza and Syria where extended suffering requires a commitment from<br />

charities and donors towards long term, sustainable support. As a proud British<br />

charity, registered here in the <strong>UK</strong> we have continued our support for meaningful<br />

programmes and initiatives nationwide, including educational programmes and<br />

feeding the homeless daily.<br />

None of this could be achieved without the support of our donors, governments,<br />

foreign embassies, well-wishers, volunteers, scholars, and partner charities.<br />

Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) has said:<br />

“The best of mankind are the most beneficial to mankind”<br />

Thank you for helping us benefit mankind by spreading love<br />

and compassion on the earth<br />

Your brother in humanity,<br />

Hafez Abdussamad Mulla,<br />

Country Director of Al-Imdaad Foundation <strong>UK</strong><br />
