Islamic Relief Australia (IRAUS) launches the 2018/1440 Ramadan Campaign

The campaign, ‘Give a Minute’, asks the reader to evaluate the quality of time. The message addresses the dynamic and different ways one can spend something as simple as a minute.

By giving a minute of our time to reflect, ponder and act, we can create meaningful and positive changes in the world we live in.

Take a minute to think of all that you cherish. Take a minute to think of those less fortunate than you. Take a minute to think of the difference you can make. Take a minute and change peoples’ lives. 

IRAUS in partnership with Islamic Relief Worldwide aims to distribute 300,000 food packs in 34 countries to benefit over 1.6 million people this Ramadan.

The message is accompanied by an image of a young boy whose facial expression represents happiness, gratitude and hope – the backbone emotions which characterise an individuals experience during the Holy month of Ramadan.

Ramadan is an opportunity for Islamic Relief and its stakeholders to combat the consequences of food insecurity. During this precious time, we also direct our energies into investing in long-term development projects that focus on empowering communities and narrowing the poverty gap.

O YOU who have attained to faith! Fasting is ordained for you as it was ordained for those before you, so that you might remain conscious of God – Verse 183, al-Baqara
