As usual every year, Qatar Red Crescent launches its annual charity and humanitarian campaign for the holy month of Ramadan. It is a bridge of mercy between those with kind and benevolent hearts on the one hand, and the needy, the poor, the displaced, and the homeless everywhere on the other to seek to alleviate their suffering and bring a smile to their faces.
Inspired by the noble Islamic teachings and Qatar Red Crescent’s humanitarian message, this year’s campaign is titled “A Call for Mercy”. Mercifulness is what touches your heart when you see a poor person, makes you feel compassionate towards them and motivates you to give as much as you can to make their life a better one. Our Prophet (PBUH) is described as the ideal example of mercy: {And We have not sent you but as a mercy to the worlds}."
Support the needy this Ramadan via Qatar Red Crescent! Your small donation could make a huge impact on the people in need! Click the link below to learn more:
