Celebrating Eid al-Fitr with close to 100 Muslim care recipients and their families
After a three-year gap, close to 100 Tzu Chi Muslim care recipients and their families visited Jingsi Hall to celebrate Eid al-Fitr with volunteers. Some of them also brought along their filled bamboo banks, hoping to their share of love and help others in need.
Happy!
After a three-year gap, Tzu Chi Muslim care recipients were finally able to visit Jing Si Hall for Eid celebrations. Samah, who has known Tzu Chi for more than 10 years, visited Jing Si Hall for the first time and got to know more about the foundation.
Samah, Family member of Tzu Chi care recipient
I was very touched that they (Tzu Chi volunteers) are willing to help people, very sincere, and also fork out the money themselves. I have also received help from Tzu Chi and I am really grateful to Tzu Chi.
Once you feel the love, just let go of one finger and let it flow. Go, just go.
The highlight of the programme, besides the magic show, was the Jumaiah family. The three daughters have special needs, and their parents would often bring them outdoors to give them more opportunities to perform, and they came together to spread joy on this day.
Jumaiah, Performer
They (Tzu Chi volunteers) called me, and they said it’s charity, ok, because I also want to do good deeds
Sahid, Performer
We want to encourage all these people or parents not to stress, their children and everybody got their own talents. Our motivation is to make everybody in this world happy
While celebrating the festive season, the care recipients also do not forget to do good deeds. The bamboo banks are filled with the love that they have accumulated over time.
Samah, Family member of Tzu Chi care recipient
I remember one of the volunteers telling me that if I return from the market, I can put in (the loose change into the bamboo bank), so I just put, I sincerely want to help
Jamilan, Tzu Chi care recipient
I’m happy to do this because I got to send it back to the community, I can feel the happiness there, it’s about the golden heart
This Eid celebration was like a family reunion, where close to 100 care recipients and their families came together with volunteers to celebrate the festive season together.
