Total cost US$4,600 Total planned disbursement of about US$145,400 needs to be raised between now and Ramadhan 1 (August 1). CAI will forward contract with vendors on these food items at current prices to lock in savings, as prices will increase an average of 20% as we approach the holy month. Please, please give or pledge generously NOW so we can be prepared insha’Allah. I am certain we will all play our parts to make this Ramadhan a little easier for those who struggle to survive.
