Omar, the herogee
(Suad Um Omar), a Syrian family consisting of three members.
This family is currently residing in one of the Syrian refugee camps in Aarsal-Lebanon for more than ten years. They only have these covers, which barely can be considered as a tent.
The hero of this family is (the child Omar), who is ten years old. He dreams of learning and studying, but….His father suffers from complete paralysis in addition to a bladder disease, which prevents him from moving or even performing the slightest duty to serve himself after his injury. Despite his young age, Omar works to provide the family’s basic needs and to purchase diapers, medical catheters, medicines, and treatment for his father.
Omar tried his best despite his young age, but carrying the responsibility of his father and the responsibility of the household were much bigger than him, given the difficulty of life and the tough economic conditions.
Suad, the confident in Allah, is a good housewife and relies only on patience, prayer, supporting her child, and supporting her husband.
But…
Thanks to Allah’s grace, and through your donations to our campaign in the month of Dhul-Hijjah via the LaunchGood platform, we were able to reach this family and provide them with financial assistance through the good and charitable people who donated and for whom we make dua to Allah to bless and please.
This assistance, thanks to the grace of Allah and then the good people who donated, radically changed the quality their lives. They became able to afford the needs of Omar’s father for medical supplies and help him with treatment, in addition to Omar returning to school and achieving his dream, and paying the rent for the tent.
When we visited Omar and his family, his word was, “Thank you, you have fulfilled one of my dreams.”
Perhaps a small amount can change a lot. May Allah reward you and bless your efforts.
