In March 2025, Giftinghumanity, in partnership with Care to Feed and Mezmin Malida, distributed 215 hot, freshly prepared meals to Rohingya refugees living in Matbari Charpara, North 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India. This initiative was part of a continued effort to support vulnerable displaced communities facing ongoing hardship and food insecurity. The meals were distributed with dignity and care, ensuring that recipients were served with respect and compassion.

The project was successfully implemented on the ground by the Rehbar Foundation, who managed local coordination, logistics, and volunteer support. Giftinghumanity extends its sincere gratitude to all partners and local teams who made this humanitarian effort possible.

Eid Clothes to refugees in Lebanon

Giftinghumanity, in partnership with Masjid Sahaba USA, distributed Eid clothes to Syrian refugees in Lebanon. This initiative was designed to bring joy, dignity, and a sense of celebration to families during the blessed occasion of Eid—particularly to children and those displaced by ongoing conflict.

The distribution was conducted with care and cultural sensitivity, ensuring families received new clothing to mark Eid with a sense of normalcy, pride, and hope. Giftinghumanity extends its heartfelt gratitude to all the generous supporters who made this meaningful act of kindness possible.

GIFTINGHUMANITY

Food Distribution at Syrian Camps.

Giftinghumanity, in partnership with Al Imdaad Charitable Trust, conducted a vital food distribution initiative in Syria, delivering essential food parcels to elderly and vulnerable refugees. This effort was specifically aimed at supporting those who are most at risk—individuals who often struggle to access basic necessities due to age, health conditions, or displacement caused by ongoing conflict.

Each food parcel contained carefully selected staple items to help meet daily nutritional needs and bring a measure of comfort and dignity to recipients during difficult times. The distribution was carried out with compassion and cultural sensitivity, ensuring that aid reached those who needed it most, in a manner that upheld their dignity.

GIFTINGHUMANITY

Hot Meal Drive for Orphaned Children in India

In a heartfelt effort to bring comfort, care, and nourishment to some of the most vulnerable members of society, Giftinghumanity organized a special hot food distribution for orphaned children in India. This initiative was driven by a deep sense of compassion and responsibility to ensure that these young lives, often overlooked and underserved, receive not only food—but dignity and warmth.

The hot meals were freshly prepared and thoughtfully served, ensuring that each child received a nutritious plate of food to fill their stomachs and lift their spirits. More than just a meal, the experience created a moment of connection, joy, and humanity for children who live without the everyday comforts of family and stability.

This initiative reflects Giftinghumanity’s ongoing commitment to serving those in need, especially children who face life's hardships at a young age. By addressing immediate needs like hunger, the charity continues to nurture hope and resilience in communities that need it most.

The food parcels were carefully prepared and delivered with compassion, bringing not only nourishment but also a message of hope and solidarity to those in need.

Financial Review

Principal Funding Sources

The Charity’s main funding sources are donations from the public. We have a policy whereby 100% of the donations received go to the specific cause mentioned by the donor. As a registered charity we are entitled to claim gift aid on eligible donations from taxpayers. The funds received on account of gift aid contributes towards the administration cost of the charity.

Reserves Policy

The Financial Statements were prepared for the 12 months ended 31 April 2022. At the end of the financial year, the charity had a surplus balance of £32,314, and this was used to fund charitable projects due at the beginning of the next financial year and to accommodate operational expenses.

The charity strives to utilize the funds it receives within the year they are donated, directing them to the projects that are most urgently needed around the world.

Statement of trustee’s responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustee’s Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law of United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year.

In preparing these financial statements the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP.
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements and;
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
