Henna Party

On July 16, 2015, The Rescue Rangers held a Henna Party at Zakat Foundation. There were two henna artists present creating fun and imaginative designs from 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. In that short time, we raised $175, making more then 2,500 total for the children's Eid Gifts. There were 17 people who attended the party to help support us. It was an amazing experience to watch the floral patterning be drawn on your hand. If there is ever another henna party then I will definitely be there! I also hope to practice so I can help with the henna designs. It feels could to make a difference and in others lives just by simply caring and planning events that has a global impact.  I am always glad to be part of this group filled with kids who have caring hearts.  

   

George Wilson Center Iftar

On July 2nd we sold the activity books that we made. I like how our hard work paid off because we made $100 that night. We hope to sell more over the next few weeks. So far we have raised close to $2,000 for the Eid Gifts. Kids are giving back to kids. The book turned out well because it was well thought out and organized, with sketches from many creative children. I'm glad to be a part of such a productive and caring group.

A Book In The Making By Hana S. Hubert

 On June 14th, the Rescue Rangers had a meeting to continue preparing for the book we are making to raise money for Eid Gifts. My contribution to the book is a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure, where you have to escape from a house by solving riddles and avoiding traps. Writing it was a remarkable experience, and I learned a new style of writing. I can't wait to buy the book when it is made, and hopefully everyone that purchases it will enjoy it. All of the Rescue Ranger members lent their artwork for the making of the book, and a lot of patience and hard work went into producing it.

An Eid Gift

       We will be giving gifts this Eid to people who cannot afford it. Many people in the world cannot even afford food for a night. We can help them have an enjoyable Ramadan and Eid this year by simply purchasing gifts for the needy. Both you and the recipients of the gift will be pleased, and you will receive a great reward for your course of action.

       Most Muslim families give and take presents on Eid. However, people living in poorer countries cannot afford to purchase anything for their family. Eid is a time for prayers and blessing, and Inshallah we can brighten the lives of some people, and make a difference one step at a time.

      The Rescue Rangers will be collaborating to make an activity book, with various sketches and activities the members all worked hard to come up with. The money raised will be used to purchase the gifts that the poorer Muslim families can enjoy. Lets all make a difference this Ramadan.

At The Farmer's Market to Help Nepali Earthquake Victims by Adam Hubert

       On Saturday May 16, 2015, I went to the New Castle Framers Market to help people in Nepal. Did you know that a huge earthquake hit Nepal on April 25 2015? I watched a video with my mom to see what devastation the earthquake caused. I felt bad for the people there. It was horrifying to watch houses and pools turn into rubble. According to the Nutritional Emergency Operation Center, at least 3,617 people are now known to have died and more than 6,500 people have been injured. I want to help the Nepali people so they can have food, shelter, water, and clothe. At the farmers market, we collected money by selling chips and cookies. My sister Hana did face painting for $1 and my friend Ruhi sold portrait drawing also for $1. I was glad to be there to help out. It was nice to end the day by eating yummy ice cream. I recommend this video for you to see the effects of the earthquake. If you would like to help, donate at zakat.org.

What ZF is Doing For Nepal

ZF Team distributing blankets

In Nepal there was a very big earthquake with magnitude of 8.2 , which is a lot. About over 8,000 people died because of this incident! (Could reach to 10,000) 2 million people have been displaced from their homes. Many family members were lost during the earthquake. Now there is a ZF team in Nepal distributing different supplies for the ones who had lost their homes. A few days ago the team distributed blankets to the homeless there. There was a brunch on Sunday in which all the money went to Nepal. The Rescue Ranger team had different jobs during the brunch. We raised $1,500 in the end. Please donate to help the Nepal survivors.
