Winter Care Drive 2022

Nov 2, 2022

Winter is almost here!

Give the Gift of Warmth!

Support our annual Winter Care Drive

When we think about winter, the first thing that comes to mind is winter clothing to protect ourselves. Imagine being in a position where you cannot afford winter clothing. With the cost of living having gone up so much over the past year, the affordability of winter gear has gone down. According to a recent report, inflation has caused prices of all commodities to rise so high that people are forced to choose between buying items of necessity such as food and clothing, or paying bills. 


Serving Humanity and Al Huda Elementary have partnered together in our Winter Care Drive in order to provide winter clothing and accessories to people in need.

Donate Today

Join us for our ‘Winter Care Drive packing event’ on Sunday, Dec 4, from 2:30pm – 4:30pm, at Al Huda Institute. We will be sorting through winter coats and accessories, and making winter care packages. Help us spread the warmth!

SIGN UP FOR THE PACKING EVENT

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) has said:

 “Whoever would like Allah to shade him with His shade, let him give respite to one in difficulty …”

[Sunan Ibn Majah, 2419]

Make this winter easier for someone in the community. Help us reach our goal of providing 450 coats! Donate today.

Please note: We are not accepting any in-kind donations this year.
For any further inquiries related to the drive, please email serving.humanity@alhudainstitute.ca.
