A 6.8 magnitude earthquake hit Morocco on September 8, killing and injuring thousands of people and causing widespread destruction. The Moroccan Red Crescent Society (MRCS) responded immediately, providing first aid and psychosocial support, helping transport the injured to hospitals, evacuating people from damaged buildings and providing dignified burial management. Through this appeal, the IFRC is supporting MRCS to meet the immediate and early recovery needs of 500,000 affected people. Priorities include providing food and safe water, essential household items, shelter support, health and mental health services and cash assistance.

We along with the Morocco Fundraiser GC are fundraising on behalf of Moroccan Red Crescent Society. To give you a background of our previous work, we have recently had a successful fundraiser for Turkey and Syria following the Earthquakes, where Alhamdulilah we were able to raise over £8,600. We aim for this fundraiser to be as successful. Please remember that any little donation counts, our brothers and sisters in Morocco need our help in this time of need.

We are so grateful for any contribution and may Allah (SWT) keep you happy and well.

Best Wishes,

Hana S, Bouchera A and the Morocco Fundraiser GC.
