Welcome to Inara Project News!
Our April paper has all you need to know about why we’re fundraising and our upcoming Ramadan/Eid events. We always welcome new recruits, and you can find out more on how to become a volunteer by looking at our Join Us page.
Iftar with Inara Project!
We held our annual Iftar for women in the community at our local mosque in Poole.
Alongside good food and good company, we had representatives Sarah and Feda join us from Palestine Solidarity BCP.
The world is aware of the suffering the people of Palestine have faced and how important it is to support and aid them.
We want to thank everyone who attended, donated to our fundraiser, and bought appetising dishes to share with the community — there was plenty to go around and in the blessed month, we couldn’t be more grateful to be able to enjoy a fulfilling meal in the presence of sisterhood.
Fun in Fundraising
During Ramadan, we’ll be fundraising to help Inara Project go full steam ahead with events for next year.
So far, we’ve raised over £1600 so a big thank you to everyone who has donated.
Our fundraisers go towards our different projects such as the Community Kitchen and Sew Good, but also to our Volunteer Socials.
Your donations help us support women in need, providing them with essential resources and opportunities for a brighter future!
Let's keep the blessings flowing beyond Ramadan! Your support fuels our mission year-round. Together, we can make a lasting difference! Help us uplift women, uplift society.
Upcoming Eid Events
With only 10 days left of Ramadan, Eid is fast approaching and here at Inara Project, we want to celebrate.
We held an Eid Card Making Workshop and were delighted to see so many people from the community turn up.
It was especially heartwarming to see children attend and get creative. They wrote hopeful messages to vulnerable children in need, showcasing strength and unity in the blessed month.
And that’s not all we have going on for Eid.
We’re going to be hosting an Eid meal and want to invite you to eat with us!
The past few years, we’ve eaten at local restaurants in Bournemouth, and we’ve loved connecting with the community celebrating Eid over food and company.
Keep an eye out on our socials for more information!
Keeping up with our volunteers
“I’m so excited (and nervous) to be part of a once in a lifetime opportunity with Human Appeal’s Reach Team.”
One of our lovely volunteers Taznin is going away on a deployment trip to Lebanon to hand-deliver food packages and essentials to displaced families in need.
There are many families from Syria and Palestine who have had to seek refuge in camps in Quroun, Akkar, Beirut and Siada.
The donations make all the difference in being able to spread kindness and support to those who are heavily affected by conflict and displacement.
If you’d like to support and donate towards this project, please use the donation page. Every donation, no matter the size makes such a difference and lasting impact.
Donations page can be found here.
“I’ve not done this before but it’s an opportunity to see first hand how humanitarian aid is distributed and meet the beneficiaries,” Taznin said.
Volunteering for Inara Project
Over the past three years since we’ve begun as a non-profit charity organisation, so many Dorset local residents, and even people from further out, have volunteered with us.
Now, we have different departments where all our wonderful volunteers can work together to plan, budget, advertise, and create the projects and events we hold across the year.
From Sew Good to our Ramadan events, from our socials to our Refugee campaigns — we inspire to uplift everyone we can in the community.
“Inara showed me how an individual can have an impact on the community and how they can do big things with the right support and facilities.” ~ Volunteer
There’s something for everyone at Inara Project, and every form of support is admired by us from you.
And that’s why…
