USKA WATER AID PROJECT 2026
IN THE NAME AND MEMORY OF KHUZAIMAH DOUGLAS AND AZMAT YAQUB

We are proud to announce that our 2026 USKA Charity Gym Project will once again be delivered in partnership with ISRA-UK.

ISRA-UK is a Birmingham-based charity that has been operating for over 40 years, with a mission to relieve poverty worldwide and to bring lasting change, hope and prosperity to communities in need.

This year, we are committing to a life-changing water aid initiative, funding the installation of 2 Solar Powered Submersible Water Pumps in Pakistan, 2 Borehole Water Wells in Uganda and 2 Large Tube Well Hand Water Pumps in Pakistan.
The total cost of this project will be £6,100, with any excess funds raised rolling over into next year's charity project.
This project will be carried out in memory of our dearly loved and missed students, Khuzaimah Douglas and Azmat Yaqub, whose legacy continues to inspire everything we do.

Project Breakdown:

Solar Powered Submersible Water Pumps in Pakistan – £1,600 each
These pumps are highly effective in remote areas, particularly in regions of southern Pakistan. Powered by solar energy, they generate electricity to operate a motor that draws water directly from underground sources, providing a sustainable and long-term solution for communities with limited infrastructure.

Borehole Water Wells in Uganda – £1,150 each
Millions of people in Uganda, especially children, still lack access to clean and safe drinking water. A single borehole well can transform an entire community, providing clean water for hundreds, sometimes thousands of people. Access to safe water helps prevent disease, improves sanitation and creates opportunity. Children no longer need to spend hours each day collecting water, allowing them to attend school and work towards a brighter future.

Large Tube Well Hand Water Pumps in Pakistan – £300 each
Tube well hand pumps are a vital lifeline for communities facing extreme water scarcity. Manually operated and drawing water from approximately 30 metres below ground, they provide reliable access to underground water sources. Their simple design makes them easy to use and maintain, empowering local communities with a sustainable solution to their water needs.

All of these projects will be carried out in communities where access to clean water is limited or non-existent. These installations will provide life-saving access to water for drinking, crop irrigation and market gardening, supporting both health and long-term economic sustainability.

We are incredibly proud to support ISRA-UK in delivering these essential resources to those who need them most.

We kindly ask for your support. Please give generously to help us reach our target and make a real difference.
Together, we can help change lives!

USKA FOOD PARCEL AND HOT MEAL CAMPAIGN COMPLETE
IN THE NAME AND MEMORY OF KHUZAIMAH DOUGLAS AND AZMAT YAQUB

We did it!

For our 2025 Charity Project, USKA Fight Factory once again proudly partnered with As-Suffa Relief, a UK-based charity dedicated to supporting vulnerable communities both across the UK and internationally. Their primary mission is to provide essential food support to individuals and families facing food insecurity.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, £10,000 was raised.

• • £5,000 will go towards providing hot meals for individuals in need, offering immediate relief to those facing hunger.
• • The remaining £5,000 will fund the distribution of food parcels to 125 families, supplying essential groceries and ensuring access to nutritious staple foods over an extended period.

Each food parcel costs £40 and is capable of sustaining a family of five.

Through this project, we are not only providing nourishment but also helping to restore dignity, stability, and hope to families experiencing hardship. Because of the generosity of the USKA community, we are making a real and lasting difference — ensuring that no child, no mother, and no elderly person is left without a meal.

This project was carried out in the beloved name and memory of our dearly missed students, Khuzaimah Douglas and Azmat Yaqub, who remain forever in our hearts.

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.
