Story
While most of us think of Ramadhan as a time for family, gifts and joy, for the families HHUGS support it can actually be a dreaded time. Children feel the absence of their father more acutely than ever, whilst the lack of support and isolation intensifies for their mothers during this time of community and togetherness. But with your support, in this month of immense rewards, we can draft a dramatically different diary entry for HHUGS families.
The Prophet (saw) said “For me to walk along with my brother to fulfill his need is more beloved to me than to make I’tikaf in this mosque of mine for a month.” (Tabarani)

"The children felt special after receiving Eid gifts from HHUGS and attending their Eid parties. We finally started to feel more normal, like there weresome people who weren’t afraid to associate with us. HHUGS saw us as human beings, not as criminals. They treated us as part of the Ummah.”
