The Date Project

The Date Project Each time you buy a tin of the finest Medjool dates we help provide Bread, water, food and aid.

Our dates have been ethically sourced, harvested by Jordanian farmers in the Jordan Valley, which is located at the lowest point on Earth and is geologically unique. Its exceptionally high summer temperatures, low humidity and minimal rainfall; combine to make it the ideal place for cultivating Medjool dates. Known for its fertile soils and climate conditions, the Jordan Valley is regarded as a key agricultural hub, with produce from there being exported worldwide.

“Innā lillāhi wa innā ilayhi rājiʿūn”
“Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we shall return.” (Qur’an 2:156)

It is with profound sadness that we announce the funeral details of Noor Butt, the beloved son of our beloved brother Majid Butt, a driving force behind The Date Project.

No words can truly ease the pain of losing a child. Our thoughts, du’as and deepest condolences are with Majid Butt, Katherine Daniels, their family, friends, and all those who knew and loved Noor.

Through The Date Project, countless acts of goodness have reached people across the world — feeding families, supporting vulnerable communities, helping orphans and bringing benefit to so many. We pray that every act of sadaqah, every date shared, every smile brought to another person, and every du’a made through this project becomes a means of ongoing Sadaqah Jariyah for Noor.

May Allah (SWT) shower His infinite mercy upon Noor, forgive his shortcomings, illuminate and expand his grave, and grant him the highest ranks in Jannatul Firdaus. May Allah grant Majid, Katherine and the entire family beautiful sabr, strength and comfort during this unimaginable test.

We ask everyone to sincerely pray for Noor and request as many people as possible to attend the Janazah to support the family during this difficult test.

Please keep Noor and the family in your sincere du’as.

Janazah details are provided in the poster.

A heartfelt thank you to every single person who took part in The Date Project and One Nation’s Giftback. Whether you donated, helped organise, purchased items, prepared gifts, or supported in any way your efforts made a real difference.

Together, we raised and prepared an incredible 9,000 gifts, that’s 9,000 smiles brought to the faces of children in Syria.

Your kindness, generosity, and teamwork turned compassion into action, and we are truly grateful for every contribution, big or small.

May your generosity be rewarded abundantly, and may the happiness you brought to others return to you many times over. Thank you for being part of something so meaningful.

May Allah (SWT) accept every effort, bless you and your families with good health, happiness and barakah, and continue to use us all as a means of bringing ease and joy to those in need. Ameen.

Be the reason a child feels remembered today.

Right now, somewhere, a child is expecting nothing… no gift, no surprise, no moment of joy. But you can change that.

Take Part in Gift Back — a heartfelt initiative by The Date Project in partnership with One Nation 🌙

Take a simple date tin or shoebox and transform it into something powerful. Fill it with small, thoughtful items, a toy, colouring books, stationery. Things that may seem ordinary to us, but mean the world to a child. Label it with an age group and whether it’s for a boy or girl, then drop it off at your nearest collection point.

📍 Find your nearest drop-off location:
https://thedateproject.org/gift-back/

No time to pack a box? You can still be part of this. Donate, and we’ll make sure a child receives a beautiful gift on your behalf.

Label it with the child’s age group and whether it’s for a boy or girl, then drop it off at a collection point.
