Video Game Party Success

Alhamdulillah the video game party was a great success. We had raised 100 dollars that all went to the 99 orphans to help raise money for an orphan. We all had played many games that we all enjoyed. We played fifa 15 and had a 2 v 2 tournament. We played super smash bros and Mario cart. They had also played naruto ultimate ninja storm 3 on the xbox 360. Most people participated in the Fifa tournament but still played other games while they waited for their turns. Overall we all had a great time and raise a lot of money.

Movie Night: Captain America, Popcorn, and One Orphan Sponsored!

Alhamdulillah, our movie event on Saturday was a great success.  Everyone enjoyed watching Captain America and the Winter Soldier (Captain America 2) while eating yummy, crunchy, buttery popcorn popped and served by 99 Orphan team members at the ZF Center.  Over twenty attendees were there to watch the movie and we raised $100 from the movie ticket proceeds.  Generous donors gave additional donations in honor of our event that totaled up to $500, allowing us to complete our eighth orphan!  Here are some pictures from the event:

99 Orphan January Updates

Alhamdulillah, the 99 Orphan team has been progressing well during the past few weeks.  During our 2015 launch meeting, we discussed the members' roles and potential ideas for the next few months.  We will be sharing this information soon, insha Allah.

So far, we have been able to raise money for a few orphans this year, alhamdulillah.  Our Lancaster youth group already raised $500 for this year's campaign and we are looking forward to seeing more from them during the next few months.

Our Indian bake sale was a great success, as well.  With the efforts of the Indian families of Delaware and the many others who came to support our cause, we were able to raise $1350 from the event.  The 99 Orphan team is extremely grateful to everyone who helped make the event a success.

Here are some pictures from the event:
