In several households the poverty is so abject, so stark
that Rahat
provides a small monthly allowance for ration and food, as and
when funds permit. We found that there would be no point in
providing for fees when there was no food in the house. We really
would like sponsors and donors to strengthen this activity. During
Ramzan Rahat
organises Community Iftar for school students and poor and
indigent people at four different locations in Mumbai. The
Community Iftar is sponsored by WAMY of Saudi
Arabia. During Eid-Ul-Azha, arrangements are made to offer
sacrifices of goats on behalf of well - wishers staying abroad.
The cost of one goat to be sacrificed is approximately US $ 100.
The meat is distributed amongst the poor people of slum localities
from where Rahat is
working.

Every year a community Iftar is organised through support
