Smiles for Magdi's Children

Magdi, 35, lives in the north of Gaza city. He has six children but is too ill to earn a living. He suffers from kidney problems and has to spend 5 days a week receiving treatment in hospital.

"My monthly income is zero", says Magdi, "My family has no hope and I cannot do anything to change their reality."

In 2006, Islamic Relief distributed 18,500 food packs in 11 areas across Palestinian Territories.

"Islamic Relief knocked at my door to help me and my children, who were hungry," Magdi remembers tearfully. "They sponsored my family and provided us with a Ramadan food parcel which means a lot to me and my children."

Each food pack contained 4.8 kg rice, 3kg white beans, 3kg fool (type of bean), 3kg lentils, 1kg macaroni, 2kg dates, 4.8kg sugar, 0.9kg tomato paste, 2 litres oil, 1 litre olive oil and1kg halawa and 2kg taheena(sweet foods).

"I thank Allah and then Islamic Relief for their help," says Magdi. "I cannot forget the smile on my children's faces when they brought us a parcel during Ramadan."
