Access to a clean and constant supply of clean water is essential for life. Not only does it keep the human body alive and functioning, but regular hygiene staves off diseases whilst regular access to water helps crops to grow and allows farmers to grow livestock. The use of wells and pumps are a viable solution for many areas but in vast swathes of Africa, water is so far below the earth’s surface that the only way to reach it is to create a large borehole. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592663094004-2IUCHLCZQS0D638Z7DD2/DSC00661.JPG Water Aid https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592663205441-9KJO7949CGDERW5JASVE/DSC07850.JPG Water Aid https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592663138072-W7DYWLHUXS1C41J09K73/DSC08844.JPG Water Aid https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/home daily 1.0 2022-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1591968291319-8PL2080TSJ631UVKUYOU/5f383c0f-1096-4b9e-806d-a92039c4186d.jpg Home - Our Vision Our purpose is clear and simple – to work towards long-term, sustainable projects and provide the means of a life outside of poverty for the world’s most vulnerable Since 1999 we have kick-started development in remote villages around the world, empowering rural communities by providing the basic necessities of life from Water, Sanitation, Education, Livelihood and Socio-Economic Development thus lifting them out of poverty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592660559624-BXRVLDBDLR8TVIAEA2EY/family.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1591534715073-17NZ8AG3NOW1SNN755DN/DSC07688.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1596400984414-SRT2YFJ70LR2HMV70JHG/8056831b-47e9-4ada-8ca3-fad8b37f9d55.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592661806906-0YOBO1NOK98373VH4DC2/5ea30d3e-07a8-4683-9a88-5f441e0f13a4.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1593866751968-KMYVTRUNO8OOTDE4S2VQ/DSC01712.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592566360357-YKTIXAWJ01V079VA4YDZ/DSCF0128.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592307791898-MH0A0EHGE89T077JA28C/DSC07743.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592308277202-LKYTN85FAF6UJX1E19BR/DSC02665.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1591560840904-20U0ENGLKOYSKHP9CS8X/IMG_6975.JPG Home https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/food-aid daily 0.75 2022-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1591707076404-L13DPTXO4YAZ0ULBT6AQ/3dfaa6b0-b3e1-4fb0-98d5-d50e52b0d3d6.jpg Food aid - Method of distribution 4-6 weeks prior to the beginning of Ramadan, potential beneficiaries who may be in need of food parcels, and who are residing across the country including villages we operate in, are assessed by local Imams, village chiefs and our partners.

It is during this month that pilgrims travel to Mecca in order to visit the Kaaba. Hajj is performed on the eighth, ninth and tenth days of the lunar month. Eid al-Adha begins on the tenth and ends on the 13th. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592567151277-2FD0D98GYQUZ7FUZLDM3/10a86fef-674a-4586-aaf8-258b07abc347.jpg Eid/Qurbani - Significance of Qurbani The practice of Qurbani can be traced back to the Prophet Ibrahim (AS), who dreamed that God ordered him to sacrifice his only son, Ismail. In his devotion to God, Ibrahim agreed to follow his dream and perform the sacrifice. But God intervened and sent a ram to be sacrificed in Ismail’s place. Ismail was spared because Ibrahim proved he would sacrifice his son as an act of piety, despite the loss it would have caused him. The continued practice of sacrifice acts as a reminder of Ibrahim’s obedience to God. https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/ophanages daily 0.75 2022-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1591795851586-YWTCF8MWULN73RL8ZLS2/IMG_6975.JPG Ophanages - Duty to provide care Every child has the right to a home; feeling cared for, loved and safe. Unfortunately, this is just a wishful dream. Orphans are some the most vulnerable members of our society and having lost the love, care and protection of parents, they are at the mercy of close relatives, family and friends and society at large. We have a duty to provide for these vulnerable orphan children, which is why this project was set up to help build an orphanage for those most at need. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592566272261-9UVF0OV7LX1PLLLDQADK/22.jpg Ophanages - Prophetic tradition Many orphans in The Gambia find themselves abandoned, struggling to survive. The struggle to find food, as well as living in makeshift shelters with no hope of attending school or accessing vital medical treatment are a daily occurrence for these children.  Prophet Muhammed, peace and blessings be upon him (PBUH), said, “The one who cares for an orphan and myself, will be together like this,” and he held his two fingers together (Sahih Bukhari).  https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592566292760-F5BL3VQYMDBJYP5UP5IJ/91a5d632-4f20-4991-ad95-193c3be53095.jpg Ophanages - Prophetic tradition It was the practice of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) to care for orphans when he realised how valuable and vulnerable these children were. He himself was an orphan, but, with care and protection from his grandfather and uncle, he became the beacon of light for the world at large. It is our sacred duty to support, protect and care for the welfare of the orphans.  https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1592566479516-NOIOIS6WX9DJ2HWT44J9/IMG_1362.JPEG Ophanages - What we provide Living quarters with beds, mattresses and storage facilities Separate hygienic toilets and shower/bathing facilities – separate for girls and boys Kitchen facilities for on site cooking Trained teachers who deliver a quality education Ethical, moral and religious training  Healthy lifestyle and hygiene education Extra-curricular activities ensuring learning is fun  https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/our-vision daily 0.75 2020-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1591538348680-G9GSLWB0XXGKMB805D17/DSC07826.JPG Our Vision - “There are three hundred and sixty bones or joints in every human being.

Some communities lost their mosques, while many rural areas have never had a mosque at all. As a result, the long journey to the nearest Masjid is difficult or even impossible for many of those in the greatest need, particularly the sick and elderly. After home and work, the Masjid is the most frequented place for a Muslim but unfortunately in the Gambia, the limited resources cannot fulfil their desire for a much needed Masjid place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1593869096207-D6K5W43XI6X43S84RQDA/Gambia+015.jpg Masjids - The role of the masjid The masjid plays a vital role in bringing the community together and uplifting their spirits. Help us to build a Masjid and unite these poverty-stricken communities. Masjid’s are at the heart of every Muslim community around the world and they play a pivotal role in education, daily worship and special occasions. Indeed, the first act of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) upon his arrival in Medina was to build a masjid. “Whoever builds a Masjid for the sake of Allah (SWT), Allah (SWT) will build for him likewise in Paradise” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1593869231234-TD2PESP67H7HCYNQ90OP/DSC00437.JPG Masjids - How we can help At Project Gambia, we have been helping support communities across The Gambia build their religious institutions which have gone on to become the focal point of their community. Each building is designed specifically for each current and future needs though careful planning with village officials and elders. Since launching the campaign we have been able to build 5 Masaajid’s across The Gambia, helping thousands of Muslims enjoy a communal place of worship Currently, many worshipers are forced to use temporary buildings that provide little to no shelter from the blazing sun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1593869296716-MZDOS03JFN3YK6O48UYS/GEDC1139.JPG Masjids - Your donations Your donations will help us to build permanent Masjids that will Inshallah be there until the end of time that the entire community can use. Just a £100 provides a prayer area for a Masjid, whilst £15,000 can help us to build a small Masjid , and £30,000 will ensure we can build a large place of worship. https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/community-hospital daily 0.75 2020-07-04 https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/community-bakery daily 0.75 2020-07-04 https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/agricultural-projects daily 0.75 2020-07-04 https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/community-dental-hygiene daily 0.75 2020-07-04 https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/landing-page-for-no-content daily 0.75 2020-07-04 https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/taiba-nyassen daily 0.75 2022-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1614447572619-6CZXK4FL0FQ6HVZBJA1J/Orphanage Taiba Nyassen - Foni Bondali, The Gambia - Orphanage & Quran Memorisation School https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1614448330228-AK8AB34RNHQKB7LOUYJH/WhatsApp+Image+2021-02-21+at+7.30.19+PM+%281%29.jpeg Taiba Nyassen - Foni Bondali, The Gambia - Orphanage & Quran Memorisation School https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5edcda42e451f275e3b7244f/1614505130213-ZE07CPRRJTLY9HCO2FD2/WhatsApp+Image+2021-02-22+at+6.04.43+PM+%282%29.jpeg Taiba Nyassen - Foni Bondali, The Gambia - Orphanage & Quran Memorisation School https://www.projectgambia.co.uk/donate-holding-page daily 0.75 2022-02-23
