Do you have Zakat you need to give? Do you want to donate to a fantastic cause helping some of the poorest children in the world?
Myself - Shahzad Younas - and three friends (Ahmed Chohan, Nasser Jamil, Yasser Haneef) will be taking part in the Crumball Rally 2016 (http://www.crumballrally.com/) where we will be buying a rusty banger which must cost no more than £200, and attempting to drive it from the UK, pass through France, Switzerland and Italy, to finish in Venice - with the rally ending at the famous final location from the movie Casino Royale!
We are doing it for a great cause - to help Charity Right - a UK registered Charity who have been working tirelessly around the world.
Charity Right provides life-changing, regular school meals to the most vulnerable children in the world. We work in some of the world's hardest to reach places to ensure every child receives a nutritious school meal enabling them to fulfil their education and have a better chance at a future.
Every day, dozens of Eritrean Asylum seekers cross into Sudan, joining over 230,000 refugees living in Eastern Sudan. This is the longest standing refugee crisis in Africa. Many of the refugees have been in the camps since birth.
Charity Right have pledged, with the UK In the Kilo 26 camp - we aim to support the Korkora School - where we hope to provide one healthy school meal to 680 pupils for an entire year. That equates to 135,000 school meals - costing around £28,000 - that is 21p PER MEAL.
I hope to personally go out to Sudan later this year IA, and see some of the effects of our donations and how conditions for these children have improved.
With your help we can get there! Please dig deep and donate generously! This cause is valid for your Zakat too!
