“Whoever relieves a believer’s distress of distressful aspects of this world,
Allah will rescue him from difficulty of the difficulties of the Hereafter.”

Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) 

No Food! No Home! No Family!

Gambia is one of the smallest countries in Africa and also amongst the top ten poorest in the world. Well over half the country lives below the poverty line, earning less than $2 a day.

The majority Muslim population barely has enough income to provide the essentials of food, clothing and shelter for themselves.

This youth driven project identified a huge need to support our African community after watching a clip on how they live their lives in poverty. The youth pledged to take small steps in hope to make a BIG difference and their efforts, along with support from the community has led to UC3 securing land in Gambia for ‘The Big Build’ (due to the impact of Covid, we are now looking to start the Big Build in 2022).

We all have a duty to look out for one another, so during Ramadan 2020 – UC3 held a community iftar where we auctioned pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Collectively, we managed to sell all the pieces with people pledging to donate towards the cause. Alhamdulillah it was a great night, but we still need additional funds to complete the anticipated work.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “I and the person who looks after an orphan and provides for him, will be in Paradise like this,” putting his index and middle fingers together.

The money pledged so far helped secure a piece of land where we are hoping to build an orphanage and a school however to fulfil the Gambian dream, we need more funds to be able to provide food, shelter, and medical aid to children across the world.

Donate now to help a child succeed in life.

UC3 on the ground!

Give a man a fish and you’ll feed him for a day… teach him how to fish and you’ll feed him for a lifetime.

The Unique Children’s Charity youth vision is to empower, enrich and engage people to be more self-sufficient so that they can stand up on their own two feet. We’re hoping that we can support more families and individuals to provide food and essentials for their loved ones. With your help, we have no doubt that this could be a form of great Sadaqah.

Lets build your dream together!
