Legacy of Love: Clean Water in Their Names

Tax deductible
I am fundraising on behalf of my friends, Abbas and Elizabeth Hourani, who just lost 11 of their close family members when the residential building they were living in during the war was bombed as they were sleeping on Saturday, November 23rd.

There is nothing that can take away the loss of Abbas's parents, siblings, nieces or nephews. While justice is not possible in a world where Abbas and Elizabeth's daughter will never know her grandparents in Lebanon, honoring the family members who have been lost is something we can do. Sadaqah Jariyah is a way to honor the dead by giving ongoing charity in their names. This fundraiser will result in a clean water well provided for a community in need by the Zakat Foundation of America in the names of:
Mohammed Issa Hourani
Hanaa Ghazi Sayed Saleh
Fayroz Mohammed Hourani
Hiba Mohammed Hourani
Amani Mohammed Hourani
Hussein Hussein Awdi
Nancy Hussein Awdi
Ali Hussein Awdi
Fatima Hassan Fakih
Fatima Mohammed Salman
Mohammed Ali Hassan Fakih

Each well has a lifespan expected to last at least 30 years and every three years, Zakat Foundation representatives perform a follow-up regarding the state and productivity of the water projects to ensure they are in good working condition. While there is nothing that we can do to ease the pain of the loss of these precious 11 souls, the impact of their legacies will last for years to come through this well.
