MKCT’s Gaza Emergency Response: A Story of Growing Impact!

Asalaamu Alaikum Everyone!

🎉 We have some exciting updates! Even though our Gaza Emergency Response campaign ended months ago. Two amazing things have happened that we wanted to share with you!

  1. 🌹 You never stopped giving!
    Your generosity continued to pour in with Thousands more pounds of donations, allowing us to extend our food aid operations (new video below👇🏽). You watched as the aid reached the hands of those in need, and your unwavering support kept it going. As Malcolm X once said, “When ‘I’ is replaced with ‘We,’ even illness becomes wellness.” You made that wellness a reality for countless displaced families in Gaza!

  2. 🚛 Our golden supply chain is proven!
    Word has spread about MKCT’s incredible network that delivered aid directly into Gaza. Other organizations and businesses have reached out, wanting to partner with us, so now, we’re positioned to help on a larger scale than ever before!

🎖️The real heroes behind all this success are you—the families, members and donors of the Khumbar Community. Your support has been the backbone of MKCT, laying the foundations for the overwhelming success we’ve achieved in 2023 and 2024.

And here’s the best part… we’re not stopping! Big things are coming in 2025 InshaAllah!

🤫 We are already working on new and exciting charitable events that get YOU involved right at the heart, both in the UK and internationally!!!

ARE YOU READY???

🚨 Emergency Update: Chai in the Park Event Postponed🚨

Your safety and well-being are our top priority. Given the current climate, we feel it is our responsibility to ensure that our community is not put at unnecessary risk.

We urge all community members to take extra precautions during these heightened times. Our religious identity, skin colour, and culture have unfortunately been unjustly targeted by far-right groups. Please remain vigilant and stay safe.
