Ramadan Food Appeal: Helping Families Break Their Fast
This Ramadan, thousands of families in Gaza, Yemen, and Pakistan are fasting without knowing what food they will have at iftar.
Through our Ramadan Food Appeal, Akram Aid is providing food packs and hot iftar meals to families facing hunger and hardship. With our 100% Donation Policy, every penny you give goes directly towards feeding those in need during Ramadan.
Your support can mean a mother watching her children eat with relief. It can mean a fasting person breaking their fast with dignity instead of worry.
How Can I Help Through the Ramadan Food Appeal?
A single act of giving during Ramadan can support a family for days — sometimes for the entire month.
-
Sponsor a family for Ramadan – help provide enough food to last through the month of fasting.
-
Donate an iftar meal – support the delivery of warm meals to those with little or nothing to break their fast.
-
Give on behalf of those unable to fast – help provide food for families by covering missed fasts through food provision.
However you choose to give, give with sincerity. In this blessed month of Ramadan, every intention is accepted, every reward is multiplied, and every act of charity brings barakah.

The Virtue of Feeding Someone Who Is Fasting
“Whoever gives food for a fasting person to break his fast, he will have a reward like theirs, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest.”
— Tirmidhi
Feeding someone in Ramadan is more than a kind gesture. It’s a spiritual opportunity. A way to earn a reward, relieve hardship, and show gratitude for what we’ve been given.
This simple act of giving an iftar carries the weight of immense reward in the sight of Allah. Whether you feed one person or one hundred, the Prophet ﷺ promised that you share in their reward without reducing theirs in the slightest. It’s one of the most accessible ways to earn continuous blessings in this sacred month.
So give — not just from your wallet, but from your heart. And let every iftar you support be a du’a answered, a reward written, and a step closer to Jannah.
