The Birmingham Abbasi Youth Network (BAYN) initiated their Donate Your Day campaign in response to the European Refugee Crisis. One thousand envelopes were labelled and distributed over to the first ten nights of Muharram. The campaign encouraged all members of the community; young and old, to donate their day’s wage, expenses or any amount they could. Allhamdullilah over the ten nights approximately one hundred envelopes were returned and a total of £7,159.12 plus one gold ring was collected by dedicated volunteers and the treasury teams in the ladies and gents. In addition to this figure a further £585.00 has been collected online. This gives us a grand total of £7,744.12 plus the gold ring.
Collected money will be donated to the European Refugee Crisis Appeal organised by the World Federation and Council of European Jamaats.
Whilst the weather at home is taking a turn for the worst, spare a moment to remember those in need in your prayers.
