Fast-A-Thon 2012

Go hungry for a day, so someone else doesn't have to.
On July 21, 2012, Hyatt Plaza Shopping Mall will be hosting its third annual Fast-A-Thon for the benefit of the people of Niger.

For every person who registers and Fasts with us, QR 200 will be donated by Qatar Red Crescent on behalf of the fasting person to the people of Niger. Therefore, the more participants, the greater the benefit to those in need!

We encourage non-Muslims to join together in remembrance of those less fortunate in Niger by going hungry for a day.

The Fast will conclude at 6:00 pm on Saturday, 21 July, 2012 at the Hyatt Plaza Food Court with a presentation and a meal to break the fast with the community!

Please participate to help those who struggle to put food on their table for themselves and their families.

Why should I participate?

By signing up to fast, you will share in a truly unique experience. You will also have the opportunity to learn about why Muslims fast and directly contribute to the hungry in our own community.

On Thursday, July 19 2012, we will be hosting a short orientation for participants who have registered to fast with us on Saturday. The orientation will provide you with details on the Do's & Dont's of fasting.

What should I refrain from?

In addition to avoiding food and drink throughout the day, make an effort to refrain from any ill habits you may have, such as swearing or backbiting.

How will the hungry benefit from my fasting?

The people of Niger, a country close to the borders of Nigeria and Benin, are living through their hardest time. With millions of people going hungry every single day, the hunger crisis in Niger is is quickly turning into a deadly catastrophe.

For every person who registers and Fasts with us, QR 200 will be donated by Qatar Red Crescent on behalf of the fasting person to the people of Niger. Therefore, the more participants, the greater the benefit to those in need!
