Charity for Jannah
Charity for Jannah began as a private initiative, by sending donations to one private person in Palestine in December 2023. Witnessing all the aid trucks stuck at the border between Egypt and Palestine broke our hearts and resolution took root. Charity for Jannah was founded in February 2024. The real work began, and still to this day we strive to become better and better each and every day. Since day one we have worked directly in the affected areas and we aim to continue doing so. Till this day we depend on our amazing team leaders in Palestine and we are forever grateful to them and they deserve our utmost respect. All your donations are sent directly to them, thereafter all the amazing work continues in Palestine. Every contribution sent is spent on purchasing different items such as: food, clean drinking water, formula for babies, diapers, warm clothing in the winter season, tents and more. Our wonderful team will distribute all of this themselves as well as prepare food in the streets and sometimes even deliver it to displaced families and orphans in their tents.
