Giving to MY Hospitals Charity this Ramadan

Donations made during Ramadan help us fund projects that go above and beyond NHS budgets and make a meaningful difference. These may include patient comfort items, family support spaces, wellbeing initiatives for NHS staff, and vital medical equipment. With your support, we can continue enhancing care and compassion across our three hospitals and community services.

Donations

Types of charitable giving

  • Zakat — The third pillar of Islam, requiring all Muslims who earn above a certain threshold (nisab) to donate 2.5% of their wealth each lunar year to those in need. Giving Zakat is an act of worship and compassion. 
  • Sadaqah — A voluntary act of kindness or charity given without expectation of return. This can include giving time, resources, or financial support to help others. 
  • Lillah — Meaning “for Allah”, Lillah is a voluntary form of charity often given to institutions such as hospitals, mosques, or orphanages. These donations are used to benefit others, regardless of faith, and can help fund hospital projects and community support.
