It has come to my attention that the seven orphans of the Al Mahdi Centre in Haiti were killed as the orphanage crumbled on top of them. But as with every tragedy comes a test for believers, we can either fail miserably or we can strive to succeed.
Allah, The Enabler, has given us a golden chance to help our brethren in need. The same rescue and relief team I mentioned a few days ago has agreed to bring our donations to the Al Mahdi Centre community and the surrounding areas. If possible, they may also establish relief efforts in that area. This is the area of Haiti that has received ZERO relief and thus the orphans have succumbed to sleeping on the streets of Port-au-Prince.
We have just a few days as all donations MUST be received by January 27th, 2010

Let not these seven perish in vain. There are thousands more that need saving. InshaAllah, you will do the right thing.

I appreciate everyone that contacted me for the open spot on the Rescue & Relief team. Unfortunately, there was only one spot--the teams have to be kept small since transportation is very scarce. Read: Medical help on hold as groups await transportation to Haiti
I received emails from professionals, students, and even newlyweds forgoing their honeymoon to be part of this team. I wish I had the option to get you all placed. InshaAllah, Allah will reward you for your good intentions. Ameen. And if there comes another opportunity you will be first I contact. |
