Doctors Worldwide is appealing to our friends and supporters to purchase their Qurbani and help those in need. We source all the animals locally to contribute to the regions economy and support local farmers. The meat is distributed fresh during the days of Eid ul Adha.

Doctors Worldwide is also offering an additional nutrition element to our Qurbani Appeal – it allows your donation to provide extra value to those you are helping. For just £40, your Qurbani donation will provide between 10 – 11 kilograms of meat and 5 kilograms of rice to at least five different families.

We also have a unique tracking system which enables you to track the whereabouts of your Qurbani animal via GPS coordinates  and Google maps. Where possible, we will also provide you with access to pictures of your specific animal.

Poverty is a daily part of the lives of the people we help and your Qurbani donation will enable them join you in the celebration of Eid ul Adha.

Please remember that the deadline for Qurbani donations is the 24th October 2012. This is to ensure that our team have ample time to source the animals and carry out your Qurbani during the days of Eid ul Adha.

When purchasing a Qurbani on behalf of someone else or in their memory, please use the “comments” box on the Donate section to advise us of their names.

Ramadan Greetings to all.

Doctors Worldwide will be appearing on The Charity Show on the 25th July 2012 on Ramadan TV.

More than half a million women die every year from avoidable deaths during pregnancy and childbirth.

In 2010 – 7.6 million children under five died. 58% of those children died from infectious disease including pneumonia, prematurity and birth asphyxia.

Like the maternal deaths, many of the child deaths are also avoidable with appropriate healthcare systems– watch our video and tune in to our television show to see how you can make a difference and save lives.

Syria Relief is a UK charity (Registered Charity No: 1143797) established in September 2011, whose aim is to help provide medical relief and emergency humanitarian aid inside Syria.With the impossibility of foreign volunteers and NGOs being able to operate there, Syria Relief’s direct communication channels, volunteers and staff on the ground gave it an unique ability to deliver in the field in areas such as Homs, Aleppo, Idlib and Damascus.

In May 2012, we formalised a partnership to provide significant capacity building and technical support to Syria Relief. Our joint efforts have created channels for larger Charities such as Human Appeal International, Ummah Welfare Trust and Muslim Aid to direct their funding into Syria. Our project work is focused on mobile health clinics, provision of chronic disease medicines supply and emergency food.

Doctors Worldwide are taking benefit of the forthcoming Qurbani festival which is part of the celebration of the Islamic Hajj, to try and ensure that as many individuals as possible will have access to meat protein in their diet. Many regions in the Horn of Africa participate in the annual Qurbani festival, and we are offering our friends and supporters to take part in this activity also.

With this year’s famine taking its toll, providing meat to many families is an important supplement to meager daily diets.

DWW are planning to offer Qurbanis in Kenya. The cost of each animal/share is £30.

Purchasing a Qurbani

Please use the comments/payment reference field when completing your payment to advise us of the names for each Qurbani. We will issue you with a “tracking number” via email after Qurbani has taken place. As part of our strategic plan to increase transparency to donors, we hope to use the tracking number to feedback to you about the circumstances and location of your particular Qurbani.

Prolonged conflict, drought and famine have caused the displacement of hundreds of thousands of people in East Africa in the worst food crisis of the century. These ‘environmental refugees’ have fled in search of food and water and are now residing in massive refugee camps. However, it’s not just about refugees; significant local populations in the arid and semi-arid districts of Northern Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia and Somalia are also severely affected.s
