Ramadan is a special time. It brings peace to our hearts. But for many people in Bangladesh, it brings worry. They want to fast. They want to pray. But they have no food for sunset. They ask, “What will I eat when the call to prayer sounds?” You can answer that question. You can sponsor Iftar for them today.

At SPAR Project, we believe no one should stay hungry in Ramadan. Hunger hurts. It distracts the mind from worship. You can change this. When you sponsor a meal, you do a great deed. You feed a hungry stomach. You earn a massive reward. You bring a smile to a tired face. This guide explains how your donation helps and why you should join us for Ramadan 2026.

The Great Reward of Feeding Others

Why should you feed a fasting person? Our faith gives us a clear answer. The Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) promised a huge reward.

He said: “Whoever feeds a fasting person will have a reward like that of the fasting person.”

Think about this deal.

• You fast for yourself. You get one reward.
• You sponsor Iftar for someone else. You get a second reward.
• You feed ten people. You get the reward of ten fasts.

This is the best way to multiply your good deeds. You do not need to fast extra days. You just need to share your wealth. It is a simple trade. You give a few dollars. You gain mountains of rewards. This is the smartest investment for your Hereafter.

The Hunger Reality in Bangladesh

Life is hard in Bangladesh. Prices are high. Jobs are scarce. Many people struggle to buy rice.

Imagine a rickshaw puller in Dhaka. He works hard in the hot sun. He is fasting. His throat is dry. His legs are tired. At sunset, he checks his pocket. He has only a few coins. He buys a small bun and water. That is his Iftar. He is still hungry.

Now imagine a different scene.

You donate. We give him a box of hot Biryani. We give him cold juice. We give him dates. He eats a full meal. He feels strong. He prays for you.

This is the difference you make. Your gift takes away his pain. It gives him dignity.

What Does Your Sponsorship Provide?

You might ask, “What do they eat?” We believe in quality. We do not give cheap food. We give food that we would eat ourselves. We want the poor to feel special.

When you sponsor Iftar, you provide a complete meal. Here is what is inside the box:

1. Dates (Khejur)

It is Sunnah to break the fast with dates. Dates give instant energy. We ensure every box has good dates.

2. Fresh Juice or Water

After a long day without water, hydration is vital. We provide clean water or sweet juice to cool the body.

3. The Main Dish (Biryani or Tehari)

This is a favorite dish in Bangladesh. It is rice cooked with beef or chicken and spices. It smells delicious. It is heavy and filling. It gives them strength for the next day.

4. Fried Snacks

Bangladeshis love fried items at Iftar. We include “Beguni” (eggplant fritters) or “Piyaju” (lentil fritters). This makes the meal feel like a celebration.

5. Fruit

We include a piece of seasonal fruit. An apple, an orange, or a slice of watermelon. This provides vitamins.

Your money buys a full plate of happiness.

The “Open Table” Experience

We love to eat together. In the villages, we create an “Open Dastarkhan” (Open Table). We lay mats on the ground. Hundreds of people sit in rows. We see old men. We see young children. We see mothers with babies.

They sit quietly. They wait for the Adhan (call to prayer). You are not there in person. But your love is there. The food in front of them comes from you. When they lift their hands to pray, they ask Allah to bless the donor. They ask Allah to increase your wealth. This prayer comes from the heart of a fasting person. Allah listens to these prayers.

Helping the Street Children

Dhaka has many street children. They have no home. They have no parents to cook for them. They sleep on the pavement. Ramadan is lonely for them. They see families eating together. They feel left out.

SPAR Project focuses on these kids. We set up special food distributions for them. We treat them like VIPs. We serve them hot food. We speak to them with kindness. When you sponsor Iftar, you become a parent to these orphans. You show them that they matter. You show them they are part of the Muslim family.

Support for Rohingya Refugees

We also work in Cox’s Bazar. This is home to a million Rohingya refugees. They live in crowded camps. They cannot work. They rely on aid for everything. Ramadan is very hot in the camps. The shelters are made of plastic.

Your donation sends food trucks to these camps. We cook in huge pots. We feed thousands of refugees every day. They have lost their land. They have lost their homes. Do not let them lose hope. Your food pack tells them, “We remember you.”

It Costs Less Than You Think

You do not need to be rich to help. Giving is cheap in Bangladesh because of the currency exchange.

• $2 – $3: Provides one hot, premium Iftar meal.
• $25: Feeds 10 people.
• $100: Feeds a large group or a madrasah class.

Skip one coffee. Skip one sandwich. Use that money to sponsor Iftar. The impact is huge. The cost is tiny.

Zakat vs. Sadaqah: How to Give

You can use different types of charity for this project.

1. Using Zakat Yes, this project is Zakat eligible. Feeding the poor is a core part of Zakat. If you select “Zakat” on our website, we are careful. We use your money only for the poorest people. We follow the rules of Sharia strictly.

2. Using Sadaqah This is voluntary charity. You can give this at any time.

• Sadaqah Jariyah: This is a long-term reward. The energy from the food helps them worship. You get a share of that worship.
• Isale Sawab: You can donate for your deceased parents. It is a beautiful gift. They get the reward in their graves.

Why Choose SPAR Project?

There are many charities. Why pick us? Here are three simple reasons.

We Are Locals

We live here. We know the language. We know the culture. We know where the poorest people live. We do not need expensive consultants. We do the work ourselves.

We Are Transparent

We show you the work. We take photos. We make videos. We post them on social media. You can see exactly where your money goes. We hide nothing.

We Are Fast

Hunger is urgent. When you click donate, we act fast. We buy the food. We cook the food. We serve the food. We do not hold your money in a bank account. We use it immediately.

Strategy for the Last Ten Nights

Ramadan has a special ending. The last ten nights are holy. They contain Laylatul Qadr (The Night of Power). Worship on this night is better than 1,000 months. That is 83 years.

Here is a strategy. Save some money for these nights. Sponsor Iftar every night of the last ten days. If you donate on Laylatul Qadr, it is like you fed the poor every night for 83 years. Plan ahead. Do not miss this chance.

A Story of Hope

Let us tell you about Rahim. Rahim is 10 years old. He collects plastic bottles to sell. He has no father. Last Ramadan, he stood outside a restaurant. He smelled the food. He was hungry. A SPAR Project volunteer saw him. He invited Rahim to our Open Table. Rahim sat down. He saw the chicken biryani. His eyes went wide. He ate until he was full. He took an extra apple for his little sister. He smiled and said, “This is the best day.”

You made that happen. A donor like you paid for that plate. There are many Rahims waiting for you in 2026.
