Objectives

Momin Welfare Foundation (MWF) has been carrying Food Packs Distribution in the holy month of Ramadan for several years apart from the monthly Rashaan’s which are being provided. So continuing the tradition in  Ramadan 2020, with the help of Allah, MWF would like to do the same but for the FIRST TIME, we are reaching out to family and friends in, not only various cities of Pakistan but also countries this year.

Our aim is to reach as many people as we can to share the blessings of Ramadan. Our Ramadan food packs will in sha Allah help families spend their Ramadan without having to worry about the food for Sahoor and Iftar.

What are the reasons behind generosity in Ramadan?

Hunger is still the world’s top health risk—it kills more people every year than AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined. There are populations of hungry people in every part of city, where one in four is malnourished.  Experience of hunger day after day over the course of a month helps Muslims understand and feel the daily struggle of those families in poor-households. This spurs many Muslims to act,

  • They will organize Iftar for friends, family, neighbors and the poor
  • Donate for the charities feeding the poor during Ramadan
  • Take part in Sadaqat Projects
  • Sponsor Orphans for their educational and family needs
  • Donate for the Ramadan Food Packs Distribution Projects
  • Take out Zakat from their wealth and distribute it to the poor

In short, the acts of goodness increase in Ramadan because the reward in this month for kindness in front of Allah SWT is the most and I am sure every one of us would like to be included in this act of worship.

Why are food packages so important in Ramadan?

  • Ramadan is a month of solidarity, helping each other. In this month, hearts soften, souls broaden, and sense of generosity revives. When the person who has been given the wealth if not the means and a heart to share from Allah SWT, they want to do as much as they can to help the less fortunate.
  • The best way is NOT to give our cooked food, but to provide Rashan, as the whole family can chose to make what they want and how much depending on their needs.
  • Muslims do believe that to feed a fasting person is highly rewarded by Almighty Allah. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) states in one of his sayings that; “Whoever feeds a fasting person has the same reward as him, except that the reward of the fasting person will not be diminished”.
  • Depending upon the size of the family served, a package helps extend the amount of food they have anywhere from a few days to three weeks—that means more food for more time, Alhamdulillah.
  • Many less fortunate people have lost jobs and businesses in the recent virus being spread, and this little support through food hampers people will keep them afloat at least for the fasting period.
  • These donations also help the local economy because the food in each package is purchased locally.
  • These food hampers will let them fight against malnourishment and ultimately they can fight against new virus.

What’s inside an MWF Ramadan food package?

Food aid is one of the largest sectors of Momin Welfare Foundation humanitarian aid. Across the city, Lahore, we’re working hard to make sure that our neighbors have enough to eat. But all of this can be done in a much bigger way, if you open the eyes of your HEART and extend us your kind support.

This project has benefited thousands of beneficiaries in various parts of the country. For upcoming Ramadan we have targeting 500 food packages and that mean 500 families. We are only a month away and we are far behind from target.
