Zayd ibn Khalid reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever helps break the fast of a fasting person, he will have the same reward as him without decreasing anything from the reward of the fasting person.” (al-Tirmidhi)
Please give generously before and during this fasting month. If you need a cause to support, I have one.
My parents are involved with Rumah Seri Kenangan Cheras, a senior citizen care center. It has the stated objective of “Memberi jagaan, rawatan dan perlindungan kepada warga emas yang daif demi menjamin kesejahteraan dan kualiti hidup mereka.” (unofficial translation: provide care, treatment and shelter for impoverished senior citizens to guarantee their quality of life). This year, they are looking for donations to give the residents cheer by providing them an additional something for breaking fast. For 29 days, for 220 residents, at least RM4180 is requested. This ends up being RM0.65 per resident per day.
They (and I) look forward to you giving generously. May I suggest the value of lunches you give up during Ramadhan, or your daily shot of caffeine?

At the time of writing, I don’t have their banking details yet. If you believe that, in this at least, I am trustworthy, you can pass the donation to me. I may match one to one donation as well.
