A Ramadan Charity Sponsored Fast
& Dinner Event
JIMAS organized this sponsored fast
to coincide with a day during the month of Ramadan 2009
in order to support the local Youth Charity 4YP.
The event included a wedding ceremony!
Six prizes were given to various community members who had taken part in some special way. Amongst them were Councillor Jane Chambers who had raised the most through sponsorship (almost £400), Gita Bannerji who has raised the second most amount, and a very special Ellie Tadesse for being the noblest and bravest by taking part in the fast; she is only 4 years old!
Cheques from people paid directly to 4YP £60.50
Money raised by sponsors £872.70
54 non-Muslims fasted thus JIMAS donation £540
Total £1412.70
Cheque from JIMAS to 4YP rounded up to £2000
Actual total raised for 4YP £2060.50 Actual donation from JIMAS £1127
Our aim is to break down barriers and create understanding
through friendship and discussion
so that together we can develop the community in Suffolk
on a strong footing of trust and warmth for all
