🍲 Tonight, make mercy tangible: fund Iftar meals for Gaza or sponsor an orphan in the Night of Power

We need ALL HANDS ON DECK!

As-Salaam-Alaikum and good evening to each of you.

Tonight may be Laylatul Qadr—the Night of Power. The Qur’an describes it as “better than a thousand months”(Qur’an 97:3). In plain English for everyone: Muslims believe this is one of the most sacred nights of the year, where acts of mercy carry extraordinary spiritual weight.

And I want to say something I mean with love, not pressure:

Laylatul Qadr isn’t a vibe. It’s a choice.

It’s a night where we decide whether our worship stays private—or becomes something real in the world.

So tonight, I’m giving you two ways to turn mercy into something tangible for Gaza. Please choose one (or both) and move immediately:

Option 1: Fund warm Iftar meals for families in Gaza (immediate impact tonight)
support the people of Gaza this Ramadan

Option 2: Sponsor a newly orphaned child in Gaza (long-term stability for a child)

Here’s a truth about fundraising that people don’t talk about enough: the hardest part isn’t raising money. It’s raising money consistently. A single surge feels good—but Gaza needs a river, not a splash.

And that’s why tonight matters so much. Nights like this don’t just raise money—they set the pace. They build momentum. They turn “we care” into “we showed up.”

So if you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to give, this is it.

A few things I keep crystal clear for every single person:

• Donations are tax-deductible where applicable (you’ll receive a receipt through the platform/charity).

• This giving is Zakat-eligible / Zakat-verified.

• And I do not receive a percentage or a single penny from either campaign—I take $0.

In Ramadan, we train our bodies to feel hunger so we don’t forget the hungry.

But Gaza isn’t training. Gaza isn’t choosing this. Gaza is living it.

So the meals matter because families have to break the fast tonight and tomorrow night and the night after that. A warm plate of food at Maghrib is dignity.

And the orphan sponsorship matters because a child who lost their parents doesn’t need a one-night miracle—they need long-term stability. They need someone, somewhere, to say: “You are not alone.”

So choose your path tonight:

If you want immediate impact tonight, give for meals:
support the people of Gaza this Ramadan

If you want long-term impact for a child, sponsor an orphan:

If you’re stuck, here’s the simplest way to decide:

• Meals = “feed a family tonight.”

• Orphans = “carry a child for the long road.”

And here’s the part that makes campaigns like this explode:

Don’t only donate. Bring people with you.

If you give tonight, I’m asking you to share these links with three people and say: “Tonight may be Laylatul Qadr. Please pick one—meals or orphans—and do it tonight.”

Meals: support the people of Gaza this Ramadan
Orphans: support orphans with Shaun

Family, I’m going to keep pressing tonight because that’s what love does. Love doesn’t watch and whisper. Love moves.

Let’s feed families tonight—and let’s carry these children for the long road.

Love and appreciate each of you.
Your friend and brother,
Shaun
