Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising money in the loving memory of Aapa and Uncle. Aapa (Khalida Begum) and Uncle (Mohammed Azim)  are respective Aunty and Uncle of my daughter in law Irum Khan. They have touched many people lives and are known for their generosity and piety. In honouring their souls by raising funds in their memory, they will continue living by lighting up many a lives through the solar lamps that The Desk and Chair Foundation will provide to the needy in and around Mwanza. Theses solar lights replaces the kerosene based lamps, immediately improving their environment and lives. Thank you for all your time and sponsorship.

Wow what an awesome response from all. Aapa and Uncle have indeed left a generous legacy. The response from their children, grand children, nieces, nephews and family members is a testament to that. I also thank my family members and friends for the amazing response.

SO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE SPONSORED ME SO FAR, WE HAVE ENOUGH TODAY TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF 66 PEOPLE. YES 66 PEOPLES LIVES ARE GOING TO CHANGE FOR THE BETTER AND IT IS ALL THANKS TO YOU ALL.

I pray that the Almighty Bless you and your families. Aameen.
