Read about the appeal

A total of £19,164.18 was donated to Abu Zahra Foundation (Registered Charity 1181727). In line with the Foundation's 100% donation policy, the entire amount was transferred to its trusted Turkish partner, Ensar Vakfi, to support those affected by the devastating earthquake.

The humanitarian aid was delivered on the ground by Deniz Feneri, a well-established charity organisation working in partnership with Ensar Vakfi, with oversight provided by Abu Zahra Foundation. Your donations directly contributed to several essential relief projects, including:

• Distribution of food packs to families affected by the earthquake.
• Provision of hygiene packs containing essential everyday items.
• Funding of daily hot Suhur and Iftar meals for those in need during Ramadan.

These projects helped provide vital support, dignity, and relief to individuals and families facing extremely challenging circumstances following the earthquake.

Also through the collective efforts of the Oxford community, a significant quantity of clothing and items were donated and handed over to Islamic Relief, organised by Cambridge Central Mosque, helping to provide much-needed assistance to earthquake victims. The donated items formed part of a larger humanitarian collection weighing 22,220 kg, with an estimated value of £27,874.00.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to this appeal. Your generosity made a meaningful difference to those in need and helped deliver practical assistance to affected communities during a time of crisis.

May Allah reward all those who donated and supported this important humanitarian effort.
