Ramadan

This year IMRC has successfully implemented a program of 1.2 million meals for Ramadan and has setup a massive food distribution program for the flood victims in Bihar and Assam. Also during the 2008 Ramadan season IMRC has distributed 38,000 outfits of clothing and remitted more than $480,000.

Ramadan is a special month for worship, fasting and giving. As we all know, it is through fasting that the servant of Allah is better able to understand the plight and trial of the hungry throughout the world. Every year, IMRC tries to support needy families in India during Ramadan, thanks to your Zakat, Fitra and other generous donations.

IMRC arranges community iftars in poor neighborhoods through its ‘Feed the Poor’ program.

And through ‘Eid Package’ program you can give a month’s grains and groceries for families so they can fast and cook proper suhoor and iftar. The Eid package generally consists of rice, wheat flour, cooking oil, onions and lentils (dal). Each Eid Package costs $30. In some cases, Eid clothes are included as well. Plans are in place to distribute 4000 packages.
