More than an eighth of Pakistan’s population has been affected by intense flooding. That’s more than the Haiti quake, the 2004 Asia tsunami, and the 2005 Pakistan quake combined.
What did three creative Londonians decide to do about it? They came up with Sadaqards, a project where they combined their creative talents to design handmade Eid cards to sell for Pakistan flood relief.
Sadaqards, at http://sadaqards.blogspot.com/ , has a simple idea that serves a pretty great purpose: buy a beautiful card for Eid and help the Pakistan Flood relief effort at the same time. All the money is donated straight to Islamic Relief, so you know your money is going to Pakistan through legitimate sources, plus the cards come in three cool collections – colorful and funky Batik, simple and beautiful Floral, and artsy contemporary Graphic. At £2 (roughly $3 American) each, these handmade and creative cards are a worthwhile buy, especially with Eid ul-Fitr right around the corner and Eid al-Adha only a few months away. The name Sadaqards itself is a portmanteau of Sadaqa, meaning charity, and cards. A clever name, a pretty card, and a good cause combine to make this creative effort one that is inspiring for our ummah.
