Sumatra Earthquake Appeal

Over 1,000 people have died after two earthquakes struck Indonesia's West Sumatra Province that devastated the provincial capital, Padang, and the nearby coastal town of Pariaman.

The death toll is likely to increase as many people are still trapped under collapsed buildings, homes and hotels.

The earthquake occurred along the same fault-line that spawned the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004, and was also felt in North Sumatra, Riau and Aceh in Indonesia, as well as Malaysia and Singapore.

The earthquake has left thousands of people displaced after heavy rains and landslides, which followed the quakes, with reports of significant damage to infrastructure, including telecommunications, roads, bridges and water supply systems.

An estimated that about 40 percent of buildings in Pariaman are heavily damaged, while local television footage showing buildings in the city's business district in ruins.

MGR's partners on the ground are providing essential relief items to the survivors and helping with the rescue operations of those trapped.

Fundraise for MGR in your Locality

With many projects to choose from why not fundraise for MGR

Have a look at our new website for our latest innovative projects that are helping the poor around the world.

Why not setup an Iftaar dinner with friends and family, and contribute a small amount of money at each Iftaar.

keep it small and easy to manage - get about 10 friends together (max) have an Iftaar in turn at each ones house, each person brings some food in order not burden the host (if desired). Set an amount that each person will have to donate at each Iftaar and on a weekly basis donate the funds to MGR.

Solar Energy for the Poor ...

MGR’s innovative Solar Energy Project aims to provide clean and renewable power to the poorest people of the world.

Lack of access to affordable electricity is a major cause of poverty in rural areas of developing countries, which is why MGR has set up this project to provide solar power for the poor.

Once it is set up, the solar panel system will enable a poor family to save on electricity costs, kerosene costs for lamps, provide a means for children to study at night and to remain cool in the hot summers.
The acute electricity shortage in Pakistan is creating extreme misery for its population and especially the poor in daytime temperatures touching 46 degrees Celsius.
For this reason, MGR is running this project first in Pakistan and will then expand to other areas of the world.
Each Solar Panel System will cost £1,150.00 including installation. – Part donations welcome

System will have a capacity to run an electric fan and at least 2 energy saving bulbs.

The life of a solar panel is approximately 20+ years!
