Ismaili Community celebrates Idd with orphans – New Vision Online

IT was all smiles for the children residing at the Missionaries of the Poor orphanage in Mengo Kisenyi, when the Ismaili Community took the Edd el-Fitr celebrations to the home on Sunday.

The orphanage is home to over 300 children, the majority of whom orphans and disabled.

During the celebrations, scouts and girl guides from the Ismaili Community took turns to feed the disabled children.

“Celebrations like Edd el-Fitr should not be for only one community. We wanted to share with our Christian friends and vulnerable children,” said Anisa Karmali, the communications coordinator.

She described the event as an outreach activity geared towards sharing and bringing hope to the vulnerable.
