A Syrian refugee family of seven residing in Florida caught the eyes of AH volunteers. The father was recently laid off from his job and the mother was pregnant. She had nothing for the newborn. They are faced with hardship to pay the rent and caring for the needs of their five children. Their food stamps allowance was not sufficient for their month’s groceries. With your Zakaah, AH helped this family and eased their burden. Late one night, the call came to us that the mother (who didn’t speak English) was about to give birth. Our volunteer went to the hospital at 1AM to assist her. AH coordinated a team of mothers who gave all the items for the newborn baby boy. Alhamdu Lillah, AH volunteers were able to secure a construction job for the father. The family was amazed at the prompt and caring assistance that came to them with such an outpour of caring and support. We pray for their well-being and hope they find comfort in their new home in the USA.
