Sirat-ul-Jannah was founded in 1992 by a UK born British turned Muslim lady. Ghufran Qureshi and her religiously dedicated and committed husband Muhammad Ahmed Qureshi. As a response to the needs of orphans, God called her to play an active role in developing orphanages that provide high quality care to orphaned and abandoned children.
The overriding goal of Sirat-ul-Jannah is to assist the destitute children, whose parents have been victims of death. Sirat-ul-Jannah focuses on providing these orphans with basic requirements such as: food, medical, shelter, clothing and an education. The future vision of Sirat-ul-Jannah is to expand the home facilities to cater for the increasing number of orphans and impoverished children.
Support for our projects is predominantly from voluntary donations. We rely on the support and goodwill of friends and families, Orphanage visitors and volunteers. Their contributions allow us to pay for staff salaries, surgeries, educational costs, equipment, trips out, and the many day-to-day expenses of caring for a large amount of children.
We have no corporate sponsors in the background making it all happen. In short, we are dependent on you.
The greatest thing that you can do is make a regular donation – no matter how small – to our charity. This will help to maintain our current work, and allow us to plan ahead. We cannot move on to other, much-needed, projects until we have ensured that there will be enough money each month to sustain the progress already made. A couple of supporters have opted to pay for a staff member’s salary for one year, which is invaluable to us. If you wish to do this, we can put you in touch with the staff member and you may like to enter into correspondence with them. Donors doing this have found it a rewarding experience which reassures them of the direct help that their donation is making.
The Sirat-ul-Jannah child sponsorship program is very unique. Through this sponsorship program, the children will receive needed assistance in the way of meals, medical, clothing or school supplies. The child you sponsor through Sirat-ul-Jannah orphanage is a child who is in our full time legal custody, who lost his family through a combination of death, abandonment and abuse. Your sponsorship helps us provide the house that your child is living in, the house parents and other staff who care for your child, three good varied, well- balanced meals every day, clothing, a good education, vocational training medical and dental care, birthday parties, recreational opportunities and everything else your child needs to live a well-rounded, fulfilling life.
The cost to support one child is PkR 90,000, SAR1,860, GBP 420, USD 540 per year
