UPDATE - MARCH 2025

It is with great pleasure to announce our Charity Project for this year in conjunction with our Charity Partners at As-Suffa Relief.



USKA Charity Project 2025 - USKA Food Parcel & Hot Meal Campaign

Hunger is a daily struggle for millions of people all around the world. Rising food costs, displacement and economic instability have left countless families facing food insecurity, forcing them having to make impossible choices between meals, healthcare and education.
We believe that no one should have to go to bed hungry and as a result the USKA Fight Factory has teamed up with it's charity partners at As-Suffa Relief to really make a difference.
Our Food Parcel & Hot Meal Campaign is a lifeline for vulnerable communities in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, Palestine, Bangladesh, Gambia, South Africa and other conflict-stricken regions.
Through this initiative, we are committed to tackling food poverty by providing essential nourishment to those in desperate need.

*Direct Beneficiaries of this project: 5125

*Project Objective:
The Primary objective of this project is to provide essential food support to individuals and families facing food insecurity.
Through the the requested £10,000 food fund we aim to allocate £5,000 towards the provision of hot meals and £5,000 towards distributing food parcels.

*Project Outcome:
As a charity committed to tackling food poverty, this project aims to provide essential nourishment to vulnerable communities abroad.
With the £10,000 funding, we will directly impact those in need by delivering both hot meals and food parcels in a cost-effective and sustainable manner.
We will allocate £5,000 towards distributing food parcels each costing £40 and capable of sustaining a family of five.
This will allow us to provide 125 families with essential groceries, ensuring they have access to staple foods and nutrition for an extended period.



The remaining £5,000 will be dedicated to providing hot meals, with each meal costing just £1 per person.
This funding will enable us to serve £5,000 hot meals to individuals in need, offering immediate relief to those facing hunger.

Through this initiative we aim to:

* Provide sustained food support to families with food insecurity. Offer immediate nourishment through affordable, nutritious hot meals.

* Strengthen Community resilience by reducing hunger and improving overall well-being.

Project Budget: £10,000
* £5,000 - Hot Meals
* £5,000 - Food Parcels


*Project Background:
Food insecurity remains a critical issue in many parts of the world, with vulnerable families struggling to afford basic nutrition.
As a charity, we are dedicated to alleviating hunger and ensuring that no individual goes without a meal.
This project focuses on providing direct food assistance abroad, targeting communities facing economic hardship, displacement and limited access to resources.
Rising food costs, unemployment and unstable living conditions have worsened food poverty in many regions.
Families are often forced to make difficult choices between food, healthcare, and education.
By implementing this project, we aim to provide immediate relief through nutritious food parcels and hot meals, addressing both short-term and longer-term food security and solutions.

*Impact:
The £10,000 funding will be instrumental in supporting individuals and families in need.   

* 125 food parcels distributed (£40 per parcel) - Each parcel will sustain a family of five, providing essential food staples that help reduce malnutrition and improve overall well-being.



* 5,000 hot meals (£1 per meal) - Nutritious freshly prepared meals will be provided to individuals who may otherwise go hungry, ensuring they receive sustenance and energy.



*Conclusion:
We stand firm in our mission to combat food poverty and provide life-saving support to those in need.
Through our Food Parcel and Hot Meal Campaign, we are not only offering immediate nourishment but also restoring dignity and hope to families struggling with hunger.
With your generosity, we can continue to make a profound difference ensuring that no child, no mother, no elderly person goes without a meal.

UPDATE - DECEMBER 2024

USKA ORPHAN SPONSORSHIP 2024 COMPLETE
IN THE NAME AND MEMORY OF KHUZAIMAH DOUGLAS AND AZMAT YAQUB

For our Charity project for 2024 the USKA Fight Factory teamed up with Charity partners As-Suffa Relief which is a UK-based charity devoted to providing essential support and care to vulnerable communities both here in the UK and abroad. For this year’s goal we decided to raise £10,000 and chose Orphan Sponsorship for children all around the world as our mission.

Being an orphan anywhere in the world is a serious challenge, whilst being an orphan in a land facing war, poverty, disasters and calamities present added extreme challenges which can be truly unbearable. There are more than 150 million children worldwide who are orphans and without the love, comfort, care and attention of a parent, a child is left in limbo, struggling to survive or even reach their potential in life. This year we intended to help provide urgent care, comfort, support and sponsorship to many orphans in Palestine, Lebanon and Pakistan.

Through a number of Charity initiatives throughout the year and through the kindness of our USKA Fight Factory family and friends we are pleased to announce that we have hit our total and have raised £10,000 to fully support 23 orphans for an entire year, offering these vulnerable children the stability, care, and opportunities they urgently need. This funding will go directly towards covering essential expenses such as food, water, clothing, education, shelter and healthcare for each child, ensuring they are nurtured in a safe and supportive environment. Alhamdulillah (Praise be to God), Through this fundraising we have made a substantial difference in children’s lives, Our contribution will be providing hope and opportunities for a brighter future.

Thank you, We are truly grateful for every single person that has contributed this year to our project, may God bless you all.

Khuda Hafif (May God be your guardian).

USKA CHARITY WATER AID AND OLIVE TREE PLANTATION PROJECT 2021

IN THE NAME AND MEMORY OF KHUZAIMAH DOUGLAS
Continuing on from last years Charity project and on the advice from our Charity partners at ISRA-UK where aid was most needed we again decided that we would stick with providing water aid in Pakistan in a Community that has little or no clean water supply. These water solutions provide life-saving access to water for drinking, crop irrigation and market gardening.

With fund raising events the charitable contributions from the members and friends of USKA Fight Factory we raised a staggering £6,331.87. This phenomenal effort affords us to buy 4 Solar Powered water wells in Pakistan at the cost of £1550 each and with the remained of £131.87 we are able to fund the plantation of 22 Olive tree's in Gaza, Palestine in the memory of our much loved and lost friend and Brother Khuzaimah Douglas.

JazakAllah Khir for everyone's kindness and hard work on the project.

Please take a look at our Video below of the 4 Pumps being constructed and used at the four separate villages...



USKA CHARITY WATER AID AND OLIVE TREE PLANTATION PROJECT 2020

IN THE NAME AND MEMORY OF KHUZAIMAH DOUGLAS
Despite a difficult year due to the Gobal Covid Pandemic our main Charity project seen us raise funds to through our Charity partners at ISRA-UK to build three Solar Powered water well pumps in Pakistan at the cost of £4,500. Through tremendous generosity and hard work £5,152 was raised allowing us to build the first pump in the small Jungaho village in the desert area known as Achro Thar, Sindh, the second in the small Rajar Khipro village in the same desert area in Pakistan and the third pump in Rataniyari Khasheli Village in Tharparker Desert. These pumps have benefited the locals who are largely peasant workers that struggle to get by day to day earning as little as $20 per month. The relief of accessing clean palatable water is more than a blessing for these communities. These pumps have also removed the daily burden for the villagers walking long distances to find usable water. With an additional £652 raised an additional 110 Olive tree's were planted in Gaza, Palestine.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the project and also to everyone who has kept and who continue to keep Zaymi and his family in their thoughts and their prayers. Jazakallah to you all, may God reward you with goodness.

USKA CHARITY WATER AID PROJECT 2019

IN THE NAME AND MEMORY OF AZMAT YAQUB



To all at USKA Fight Factory,

Thank you all for your ongoing support in the fight against poverty,

I have been following your achievements and progress online and mashallah you guys have smashed both in competitions and with your fundraising we counted the bucket for the Spring Well in Uganda and it was near enough to £950 the cost of the well, after a little extra top up by Neil. That was December 2019.

Now February 2020 Your Spring Well is now benefiting the local villagers. You will be rewarded for every drop.

It delights us at Isra-UK that we have you all in our corner as we endeavour to knock out poverty.

Alhamdulillah this year 2020 the project to provide a solar powered clean water station is under way. With your help a poor village in rural Pakistan where the temperature can reach over 50 degrees, will get fresh, clean, life saving water.

Life is full of ups and downs may you all have many more ups than downs. Osu.

Yours sincerely
Rashid Campbell
