Build a Masjid | Madrassa
All work verified personally by UK charity trustees
Your donations are personally delivered by UK trustees and volunteers
We have identified many villages in Maharashtra where there is no masjid, madrassa or school. In most cases where one exists, it is either in need of repair/unfinished/leaking/unfit for use and normally made of mud, wood, straw or tin sheets.
Give a community a comfortable place of worship, education or gathering. Poor families and their children are vulnerable to extreme elements in society. Build a mosque or community centre and save families and children drifting away from their faith or towards extremism. Give them the confidence to gather and pray in comfortable safe surroundings.

We have a school expansion program that enables schools to take in more children from poor backgrounds or to provide more comfort and extra space that is needed because of overcrowding. Where necessary, some schools will be combined with a madrassa to educate children with the National Curriculum and Islamic teachings under one building.
These projects are expensive but for the future of our children it is a small price to pay. We cannot carry out these projects unless we have donors that are willing to fund extra money. We want to help these people, but unfortunately cannot do so without major donations.
Please help us to help these vulnerable, poor families and children to save them from a harmful future.

6 Bedroom Extension for 150+ children
A donation from a Bolton business provided this desperately needed space for children, who were initially sleeping in their classrooms.
Another donor provided sleeping mats, education material and sports equipment for the children to play with.
This is one example of many on how we are improving the lives of those in need. The parents can feel safe that their children are better looked after with a brighter future.
Health & Safety for children
Health and safety for most children in a hostel in a poor area is irrelevant because they can’t afford to have the right equipment and environment. Pictures below show the reality of many poor institutes where they are desperate for our help.
Friends For You recognises the health and safety of children comes first. We provide help to improve facilities for children that will keep them safe. Health and safety in the kitchen and classrooms should be a main priority. Help us to provide the extra space and safety equipment in the kitchens and classrooms for the children to have a happy, safe and enjoyable environment.
