## **MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES**
## **Dear Friends, Supporters, and Volunteers,**
Since 2011, **HCR** has been a lifeline for those facing disaster and crisis. Alhamdulillah, in **2023-24** —a year of relentless hardship—we rose to meet urgent needs. When earthquakes struck Türkiye, Syria, and Morocco, we were among the first responders.
Our greatest challenge has been Gaza, where families face unimaginable hardship. Amidst the ongoing conflict, **HCR** continues to deliver essential food and financial aid, bringing hope in the darkest times.
At **HCR** , we not only respond to emergencies but also focus on breaking the cycle of poverty. Through long-term projects like sewing schools, schools for deaf and mute children, facility support for schools, and adult skill training centres, we empower communities to build a sustainable future.
None of this would be possible without your unwavering support, which allows us to make a real difference.
## **Jazak’Allah Khair – may Allah accept all our efforts to uplift the Ummah.**
