Today, iLuvQuran had the opportunity to organize a special class with the kids at the Syrian Refugee School here in Istanbul.
With the funds that we've obtained from the Ramadhan crowdfunding campaign, we have managed to provide the children with a Happy Quran Kit of Surah Al-Qadr, a balloon, badge and chocolates! Not only that, Ustazah Marwah Saari got to do some storytelling linking it back to the activities done with the Quran Kit. We’ve done this programme for Syrian refugees in Malaysia too, as well as cancer patients, orphans and asnaf children.
This trip would've not been fulfilled if not for the generosity from Dr Nik & Associates, an engineering consulting company who has partially sponsored our trip to see these children, Hana Valley hijabs for the hijab gifts for their six ustazahs, and of course you friends and family who have been very supportive all along. May Allah bless.
The school is beautiful, well-taken care of, with professional management and loving teachers. However, they had to close a few months ago due to the lack of funds, but reopened as parents pleaded to have the school- as they have no other options for their children. They also have a sister school in Idlib, a refugee camp in the border of Turkey-Syria, which could use the funds as well. Therefore, we would like to announce that we are taking in donations where all funds collected will be passed to the waqf school for them to use in Istanbul or Idlib as needed.
If you wish to donate, you can transfer the donations to the bank account details below until Sunday, 5 December, 12AM Malaysian time.
