Haleema’s Story

Bring Hope to Widows Like Haleema This Ramadan

Bring Hope to Widows Like Haleema This Ramadan

This Ramadan, thousands of widows and families like Haleema face hunger, hardship and isolation. Your donation of just £35 provides Iftar and Suhoor Food Parcels to sustain them through the holy month.

Orphans in Need has been delivering life-saving food parcels to vulnerable families for over a decade. Trusted by communities worldwide, we ensure your Zakat and Sadaqah reach those who need it most.

Haleema, a widow living alone in Harynana, lost her husband 12 years ago. With no income and no work available in her area, she survives in a fragile hut that barely shields her from the elements. When it rains, water pours through the ceiling. When the wind rises, dust and waste are blown inside. She wraps herself in a blanket, yet the cold still reaches her. Her words are painful to hear:

“I am surviving alone in this hut. There is no one to support me.”

For widows like Haleema, hardship is not temporary. It is daily life. Hunger is not occasional. It is constant. Even in silence, they are still here. Still enduring. Still hoping someone will remember them.

What Your Gift Can Do

A simple Iftar and Suhoor Food Parcel can transform lives. Packed with essentials like rice, lentils, flour, and cooking oil, each parcel provides a month’s worth of nutritious meals for a family of five.

Your generosity brings more than food—it delivers hope, dignity, and the blessings of Ramadan.

Why Act Now?

Ramadan is a month of mercy, a time to share our blessings with those in need. When you donate to feed the fasting, you answer the prayers of widows like Haleema and gain the immense rewards.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
"Whoever feeds a fasting person will have a reward like that of the fasting person."
(Tirmidhi)
