At 60 years old, Nidhal’s life has been marked by loss and hardship. A widow from Najaf, Iraq, she has faced unimaginable challenges—losing not only her husband but also her son and daughter-in-law, leaving her as the sole caregiver for her seven daughters and young grandson.
Adding to her burdens, two of her daughters suffer from serious medical conditions—one with a brain tumor and the other with a brain artery issue. Providing food for her family became an overwhelming struggle, as Nidhal fought to sustain them with very limited resources.
Amid her struggles, The Zahra Trust stepped in, recognizing the severity of her situation. They began providing regular food aid, delivering parcels filled with essential items to help ease the weight of her daily battles.
These food parcels became a source of relief and comfort, ensuring Nidhal could prepare nutritious meals for her family. The support, particularly during the holy month of Ramadan, helped her navigate some of the most difficult periods of her life.
“I have suffered so much,” Nidhal shared. “But your support has given me hope. I am deeply grateful for the kindness you show my family.”
With her family’s basic nutritional needs met, Nidhal was able to focus on caring for her daughters and managing their medical needs. Beyond the physical sustenance, the assistance provided her with emotional strength, reassuring her that she was not alone in her struggles.
Through The Zahra Trust’s continued aid and check-ins, Nidhal has found renewed resilience. Each food parcel represents more than just food—it symbolizes hope, compassion, and dignity.
Her journey reminds us of the life-changing impact of kindness and generosity, turning despair into determination and strength for those who need it most.
Quote: “I truly appreciate your unwavering support—you never hesitate to help me in my time of need. My struggles are many. Please keep me in your prayers. My heartfelt thanks to The Zahra Trust for providing these essential parcels and for always reaching out to ensure I’m aware of the available services.”
