A word from the administrators
Doctor ZZIWA ARAFATI. Organization Chairperson
ASalamu alaikhum Ummah of prophet Muhammad S.A.W.
I founded cares children’s Organization 5 years ago with a mission of providing solutions to the suffering children. I started treating children who were brought to my clinic. Most of the children were homeless, orphans,needy and street children. With my little resources, I thought I will run bankrupt, All praise be to Allah, I can testify that charity doesn’t decrease some ones wealth. Dear brothers and sisters, it’s my humble appeal, let’s help those in need. We can join together for the betterment of akhira(afterlife) ASalamu alaikhum brothers and sisters.

Beyond suffering and the ultimate tragedy of death, the children that do survive, often do so in ways that demeans and criminalizes themselves and brings suffering to others as well. The sad reality though, is that if a good and caring person is not there to provide what they need, who is? Pimps, child labor bosses, terrorists, rebel armies with child soldiers, child traffickers, even less – than- good- willed- relatives who want a personal slave. The end result is truly heartbreaking as many of the orphan children out there will die of starvation and issues related to malnutrition. They will die from preventable diseases. They will die at the hands of others and themselves. They will spend much of their life in jail. They will do harm to others and impact the world in a negative fashion. Let’s help the suffering children. May Allah bless you
