Objectives and Activities

|---|---|---|
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | 1. To provide or assist in the provision of facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, financial hardship or social circumstances with the object of improving their conditions of life. 2. The relief of children who are in need by reason of their age, ill health or disability, social or economic circumstances or other disadvantage in particular but not exclusively by providing clothing, educational supplies and health provisions. |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
As we all know the pandemic of COVID-19 impacted the world from January 2019 onwards. Our charity therefore had to make a range of decisions about the activities that we carried out this year. The first significant decision that we made was to not run our annual educational summer camp for refugee children in Lebanon. This was as a direct result of the pandemic not allowing us to organise this project and it not being safe to bring together so many people. We therefore focused our efforts on the following projects: Ramadan 2020 Fundraising campaign Partnership with Blackburn UK Trust to deliver food packs in Gaza, Palestine |
| Sadaqa campaign (via Launchgood) where funds were raised to be spent on providing food support for the needy in Palestine |

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Our main achievement during this period was our partnership with Blackburn Trust UK. They sent us $27,134.60 to be used to provide food packs for the neediest people in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. Through this funding we were able to support some of the poorest families in the most marginalised areas of Gaza and North Gaza through the provision of urgently needed key nutritional food items. -500 families received: - food assistance (food parcels) one week before the month of Ramadan The project focused on the immediate response to the needs of poor and marginalised families in Gaza to have food before the beginning of the Holy Month of Ramadan. The project created a positive impact on the lives of the beneficiaries throughout the targeted areas in the Gaza Strip. It satisfied an urgent and pressing need for beneficiary families to secure their basic food needs during that are necessary for Suhur and Fitrah in Ramadan, given the already harsh economic and social conditions of such families. This project created a positive impact on the lives of the beneficiaries throughout the targeted areas in Gaza Strip. The impact of the project was positive in different ways: • The project has been successful in meeting and responding to the urgent needs of the targeted families in Gaza Strip. • The project has provided affected families with means to cope with their bad circumstances and to provide them with the |
| urgent needs to survive, that they cannot |
|---|
| afford by themselves. |
| • The project has provided the |
| families with the basic needs to survive and |
| live decently. It has provided the families |
| with their most important right (right to |
| food). |
| • All distributed items were suitable |
| for the use during Ramadan. They also |
| were of good quality. They were also |
| meeting the tastes of the people and |
| traditions. |
| • Benefiting families were satisfied |
| and felt supported. They expressed their |
| gratitude for Blackburn's and ICF’s |
| generous support. |
| The money raised through the Launchgood |
| sadaqa campaign and the Ramadan 2020 |
| campaign were spent on food packs for the |
| need in Palestine. |

Para 1.21 | We raised £128,787 in donations and spent £46,900 of it. We are extremely pleased with our financial position especially as this year we operated throughout the COVID- 19 pandemic yet were still able to raise significant funds and distribute them on a range of projects (as detailed above). |

Para 1.22 | We are not yet able to hold reserve funds as we have only operated since May 2019 and are still looking to grow our income. |
