In regions devastated by conflict and displacement, moments of joy can feel like distant memories especially for children. Yet, this week, something unexpected happened in a refugee camp abroad: children smiled wide, pure, joyful smiles thanks to a simple lollipop. The Lily Jay Foundation, known for its humanitarian outreach to communities in crisis, has launched a heartfelt initiative aimed at bringing emotional relief and lightness to young lives burdened by hardship.

Today, the children supported by the Ada Nur Orphans in Uganda are enjoying their meals! Plates are full, and the children are gathered together, eating and chatting as they go through their lunch. Providing regular meals helps the children stay healthy, focused, and energized for school, play, and daily activities. For many, this support ensures they get the nutrition they need each day, making a tangible difference in their lives. Seeing the children sit together and share

This week, rain finally fell over Gaza. Alhamdulillah! However... For families living in tents, the rain was both a blessing and a hardship. The downpour was heavy. Tents flooded. Bedding got soaked. Children shivered as water ran underneath them. Plus, no way to collect the rainwater to drink, despite the desperate need for clean water. Alhamdulillah for the rain… but for families here, it brought no relief. The people continue to endure with sabr that leaves us humbled. May

Sometimes, it’s the smallest gestures that leave the biggest impact. At the Ada Nur Orphans, where children face challenges no child should endure, even a simple treat can bring smiles that last far longer than the sugar rush. Today, an activity was organized to bring lollipops to the children at Ada Nur. While it may seem small, the joy it brought was enormous. Faces lit up, laughter filled the room, and for a few moments, the children were able to experience something every

We had just sent a truck full of water to Gaza. Every drop counted families were waiting, lining up with empty bottles, hoping to quench their thirst. But then… the truck emptied. The water was gone. And in that instant, desperation took over. People began to fight. Not out of anger, but out of survival. Mothers clutched their children, tears streaming down their faces. Men shouted in fear and frustration. Children cried out, reaching for the last remaining drops. The scene w

Over 270,000 refugees in Sudan are currently living in desperate conditions. Families who have fled conflict and disaster are sleeping on the bare ground, exposed to the scorching sun by day and the chilling cold at night. Children huddle together for warmth, mothers worry constantly about their families’ safety, and elders struggle to survive without even the simplest comforts. In a world where basic shelter is a luxury, these families face unimaginable challenges. But toget

Today, Gaza felt a little brighter. When our food aid arrived, the streets usually heavy with silence began to fill with soft laughter and curious footsteps. Children hurried forward, eyes shining with a kind of hope that has been waiting quietly inside them for far too long. The moment they opened the boxes, everything changed. Their smiles grew wide, their voices louder, their spirits lighter. It was as if, for a little while, the weight of the past months lifted, replaced

Today our team "Lily Jay Foundation", marked the beginning of something that Gaza has waited for far too long: the slow, painful, necessary process of cleaning up a city shattered by war. Every street our team stepped into told the same story buildings torn open, homes collapsed, metal twisted into shapes that don’t look real. The destruction is overwhelming. It stretches as far as the eye can see, and the weight of it is impossible to ignore. As the cleanup began, one discov

In Gaza today, clean water has become a luxury. Families line up for hours, children carry heavy containers, and hospitals struggle to find enough water for even the most basic needs. That’s why we launched the Sponsor a Water Truck Initiative . A direct, life-saving way to bring water to families who need it most. Every sponsorship sends a full truck of clean, drinkable water straight into Gaza’s most affected communities. When you sponsor a water truck, you’re not just do

In a small school in Uganda, a moment of light and faith was shared. The Lily Jay Foundation had the honor of distributing copies of the Holy Quran to students, many of whom were receiving one for the very first time in their lives. For these young hearts, it wasn’t just a book. It was a gift of knowledge, guidance, and hope. In places where access to Islamic education is limited, a single Quran can become a treasured source of comfort and spiritual connection for an entire f

In Gaza, something as simple as chocolate has become a distant memory. But this week, the Lily Jay Foundation brought that memory back, one sweet smile at a time. When our team handed out chocolate to the children, it wasn’t just candy. It was joy. It was hope. It was the first taste of childhood many had felt in months. The sound of laughter, the sparkle in their eyes, and the way they held those chocolates tightly, as if holding onto a dream, said it all. In a world where s
