Please Donate Your ZAKAT to Distressed Children & Infants Intl. (DCI)
to Help Underprivileged Children
Dear Friends:

Assalamu Alaikum and Ramadan mubarak to you. We are now in the
beginning of the holy month of Ramadan, the month of self-sacrifice
and fasting. As our goal in life is to make Allah pleased with our
deeds, DCI wishes to share with you an opportunity as you determine
how you will pay your Zakat and Fitra this year. We humbly request you
to contribute your Fitra and a portion of Zakatul mal to DCI's fund,
so we can continue our urgent work on behalf of underprivileged and
orphaned children in Bangladesh. Please see the attached ZAKAT Flyer.

Distressed Children and Infants International (DCI) is a US-based
501(c)(3) nonprofit international child rights organization,
established in 2003 with the mission to help impoverished children in
Bangladesh and throughout the world. We strive to help
underprivileged children lift themselves out of the poverty cycle by
providing them basic life necessities, education, healthcare, and
family support. Another unique goal of DCI is to create connections
between American youth and less fortunate children of other countries.
DCI strives to inspire the children of America to become compassionate
world citizens, by promoting their intellectual and leadership
capacities through volunteerism. To learn more about DCI, please
visit http://www.distressedchildren.org

We proudly report that with your assistance DCI was able to provide
the following support as of last year:
o 1100 underprivileged village children able to continue their
education
o 3520 impoverished village children receiving free healthcare
o 330 orphans receiving healthcare and education support
o 3200 disadvantaged children and 3822 adults have received free eye
care
o 7400 Dhaka City slum residents provided with free healthcare and
medicine
o 1500 villagers given relief and rehabilitation support following
Cyclones Sidr & Aila
This is just a small sample of the achievements we have made possible
through the generosity and commitment of people like you. You can
