 Queen's University Muslim Student Association - Ramadan Iftar Program 

March 1st to 30th | After Maghrib | Queen's University - Mitchell Hall - Queen's University International Centre
 

We are the Queen's Muslim Student Association (QUMSA) looking to fundraise for iftars on campus. Unlike other universities, Queen's University is home to many non-local Muslim students. Every year, QUMSA provides free daily iftars during Ramadan for students on campus. This year - we need your help.

We served over 200 students daily last Ramadan. This year we're told to estimate a significant increase in these numbers. We ask those looking to donate a meal to a fasting person to consider QUMSA's program.

The burden of eating alone in Ramadan, or not knowing what to eat because of a student budget, can be lifted with your donation.

For more information, please visit our Instagram (@QUMSA) page!

To ensure transparency of our efforts, kindly review QUMSA's projected costs for the 2025 Ramadan iftar program below:

PLATINUM - $1600 Sponsor an Entire Night!

Budget Line Items

Food and Catering | 200 people @ $8 per person X 30 Nights | $48,000

The budget for food and catering is calculated based on the estimated number of people and the cost per person per night. Iftar meals will be sourced from local halal restaurants and caterers located in Kingston, ON, which provide an average estimated cost of $8 per plate.

Water | $0 (sponsorship from Culligan Water) $0

Disposable Plates and Cutlery | $500 for disposable plates + $500 for disposable cutlery | $1000
