Ramadan Collab with Al Khair Prep School

'The Art of Gifting'

This Ramadan Black Orchids is collaborating with one of our local Muslim Schools named Al Khair Prep Schools in Croydon (Registered Charity Number 1126808).

We present to you the Art of Gifting.......

This is a wonderful opportunity in this blessed month to invest in a sadaqa jariya as well as helping a humble small business stay alive during this pandemic. The art of gifting is a perfect way to indulge and treat yourself or a loved one to a beautiful Abaya or Hijab or maybe even both :)

For every full price Abaya and Hijab sold between April 1st- May 15th, Black Orchids will donate 10% of the profits to Al Khair Prep! These funds will help purchase resources for the school such as new ovens for home economics, sports equipment and a canopy to shield our children from this unpredictable weather!

Isabella Lace

With an alluring juxtaposition of fabrics and colours. Isabella Lace is replete with a dainty dusty pink lace bodice bringing an English heritage element.

A delicate curved band around the waist highlights a beautiful mirage of a straight cut yet being an A-line design.

'Hijabs for Refugees'

Thousands of refugee women in Camp Moria, Lesvos live in squalid conditions with extremely limited access to hygiene and sanitation facilities. Many are unable to change or properly wash their clothes for weeks on end.

Black Orchids have partnered with Kitrinos Healthcare (registered charity no. 1172586) to donate hijabs to refugee women living in Camp Moria. For every hijab you buy from us, we will donate one to a refugee sister in need. Five percent of profits from hijab sales will also be donated to the Kitrinos Healthcare Ramadan Appeal, which will allow Kitrinos to distribute nutritious, fairtrade 'Zaytoun' dates and Iftar packs to refugee families in Moria.

You can find the appeal and donate here.

Find Kitrinos Healthcare online here.

Thank you!
