Charity Week is happening from 23-29th of October, but you can start planning for it as soon as you like! Just make sure that you always log your activities on your fundraising page once the week begins!

As this is a week where anyone and everyone can get involved, it's happening wherever you are! You choose where you would like to hold your event - your local park, your neighbourhood, your gym, your home… anywhere in the country.

Yes! Please share your news and successes on your favourite social media site by using the hashtag #CharityWeek so we can also share your efforts! You'll be able to see how the other supporters are doing too. You can also visit our Charity Week UK Facebook/Twitter/Instagram page.

The donations made to you for taking part in Charity Week helps us to Save Lives. As a result, we will be able to fund multiple projects that will change the lives of thousands of children and orphans. You can find out more about what we will be funding and how you can have a say by visiting the causes page.

The fundraising goal for this event is however much you feel you can raise! The more you ask friends and family to support you, the greater your chance of seeing yourself on the leader board! If you feel that you might not be able to reach the goal, please don't worry - we appreciate that you are taking part and helping to raise funds for Charity Week.

You can donate and raise funds for Charity Week till 11:59 PM on 10th November.

Gift Aid adds 25p to every £1 donated, at no extra cost to the donor. It’s a Government scheme that enables charities to claim this ‘extra money’ from tax that people have already paid. To allow us to claim Gift Aid, the donor has to be a UK taxpayer and have paid sufficient Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover the amount to Islamic Relief will reclaim in the tax year. If you are fundraising offline, please make sure you send your sponsorship form to us so we can claim it.
