Donate Food – Hot Meals and Food Parcels
A basic food parcel can feed a family for a whole month. With ILA Europe e.V. you can donate hot meals, food parcels, Iftar meals during Ramadan and Ashura – wherever the need is greatest.
Food parcel, hot meal or Iftar?
A basic food parcel covers a family's needs over a longer period, while a hot meal helps immediately. During Ramadan there is also the Iftar meal, with which those fasting break their fast together.
Ashura and Fitrah
Alongside ongoing food aid you can give Ashura in the month of Muharram and Fitrah (Sadaqat al-Fitr) before the festival of Ramadan. Fitrah is due from every Muslim whose wealth is above the nisab, and is distributed before the festival prayer.
Emergency relief after disasters
After earthquakes, floods or during famine, non-perishable food and drinking water are the first things needed. Undesignated donations in this category let us respond without delay.
