A large number of affected Kashmiri families cannot participate fully in such yearly festive religious occasions as Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha. Mercy Universal’s Eid-Gift-Aid scheme gives needy families a sense of belonging to the community and reinforces their cultural heritage. Affected families are provided financial assistance to cater to their needs during the month-long fasting period of Ramadan, which culminates in rejoicing with clothes for children on the eve of Eid-ul-Fitr and distribution of meat to them during Eid-ul-Adha.
“Mercy Universal has spent £65,000 so far and requires £100,000 for this year”
