#1 Jannah Road Charity Trust ( link )

Two years ago, we purchased a second-hand van through fundraising sales and the generosity of our supporters. The van has faithfully supported our weekly food runs and furniture deliveries to families in need, Alhamdulillah.

Now, we are seeking to purchase a safer, newer van to continue serving the community.

We currently have a $3,000 shortfall.
