The Ramzan Project...

Ramzan is the Islamic month of fasting, in which participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, smoking, and indulging in anything that is in excess or ill-natured; from dawn until sunset.

We at Rotaract decided to undertake a project, where in we donate the basic necessities needed by one during this time. Two rotaractors, Rizwan Khan and I (saba.f.poonawala), undertook the initiative for this project. After the club member’s approval, we visited the priest of the masjid we chose. As per the requirements, we managed to purchase 8 kgs of rice, 7 kgs of wheat and 2 kgs of cooking oil, all of which was in great need by them.

All told the experience was truly unforgettable. The satisfaction one derives from helping another in need, in this case several individuals is exhilarating. i look forward to doing it in the future to my greatest ability.
