*GARKUWAN DANGAWA FOUNDATION: CONTRIBUTING TO YANTUMAKI COMMUNITIES DURING RAMADAN*

In line with the foundation's goal of achieving significant improvement in humanitarian efforts, Garkuwan Dangawa Foundation provided millet among scholars, orphans, and other deserving members of the society to assist them. These efforts aim to alleviate families’ burdens and ensure they have the crucial food items needed for fasting during Ramadan.

It happened on 1st March 2025 when the Foundation had distributed millet to multiple neighborhoods of Garin Yantumaki. Every single benefitting area which includes Kofar Fada, Zango, Yardorowa, Sabon Layi, Yarya, Kofar Arewa, Dungaza, Tudun Wada, Mallamawa, and Unguwar Kudu were supplied with ten bags of millet for fasting. This initiative clearly outlines the Foundations support towards fostering community development and selflessness especially during Ramadan.

To improve worship activities within the communities, the foundation also donated prayer mats to the mosques in the areas. Each mosque was supplied with mats which ensured comfort and durability for the worshippers during the daily prayers. The Foundation once again aligned this act with their mission of serving the community socially and spiritually.

The beneficiaries expressed deep gratitude for this timely intervention, offering prayers for the continued success of Garkuwan Dangawa Foundation. May Almighty Allah accept this act of charity, reward the efforts abundantly, and bless everyone involved in making it possible.

GARKUWAN DANGAWA FOUNDATION

Alhamdulillah!

Garkuwan Dangawa Foundation has successfully secured and paid the JAMB registration fees for 20 brilliant but underprivileged students in Yantumaki. This initiative aligns with our commitment to supporting education and empowering the next generation through academic opportunities.

As part of its mission, the foundation, under the leadership of its founder, has ensured that these 20 students have the opportunity to sit for the JAMB examination—an essential step for gaining admission into universities and higher institutions. By covering the cost of their JAMB PINs and registration, we aim to remove financial barriers that could hinder their pursuit of higher education.

We pray that Allah (SWT) grants these students success in their examinations and guides them toward achieving their academic dreams. May their efforts be fruitful, and may this support serve as a stepping stone toward a brighter future. Ameen.

Additionally, we extend our heartfelt prayers for the founder of this noble initiative. May Allah (SWT) bless him abundantly, accept his good intentions, and reward him generously, especially in this sacred month of Ramadan. Ameen.

To all who continue to support and stand firm in this journey, may Allah (SWT) bless your efforts and grant us all the privilege of doing more good.

Signed
