Hurayra Halal Pet Foods and One Nation Join Forces for Charity Appeal

Hurayra Halal Pet Foods, a pioneering UK-based pet food brand, has partnered with the international humanitarian charity One Nation to launch a groundbreaking charity appeal -Meals and Paws.

This collaboration will provide essential meals to both people in need and stray animals in cities facing hardship and conflict, with a special focus on Gaza, where food insecurity and animal welfare challenges have intensified due to ongoing crises.

The appeal, launched during the holy month of Ramadan—a time of reflection, generosity, and community support—will see food packages distributed directly to vulnerable populations and stray animals in affected regions. The initiative reflects a dual mission to address human hunger and improve the lives of neglected pets, aligning with the values of compassion central to both organisations.

Ahitsham Rashid, founder of Hurayra Halal Pet Foods, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: “As we prepare to launch our groundbreaking product in the UK in the next few months, we wanted to do what we can to support good causes and people and pets in need. When we spoke to One Nation, we knew we could together make a real difference, and we’re excited to see how much we can raise through this new partnership.”

Hurayra Halal Pet Foods is the world’s first Halal Monitoring Committee (HMC) certified, high-quality pet food, designed to meet the dietary and ethical standards of Muslim and Non-Muslim pet owners. The brand’s debut product, set to hit the UK market in May 2025, has already garnered significant interest, with pre-registrations open for those eager to receive it upon launch. This innovative offering combines premium nutrition with cultural sensitivity, marking a new era in the pet food industry.

One Nation, known for its global relief efforts, has delivered over 50 million meals and essential supplies to crisis zones since its inception. The charity’s expertise in logistics and distribution will ensure the appeal reaches those in need efficiently.

A spokesperson for One Nation commented: “We are thrilled to partner with Hurayra Halal Pet Foods during Ramadan to bring hope to communities and animals in Gaza and beyond. This collaboration not only addresses immediate hunger but also sets a powerful example of corporate responsibility and compassion. We invite the public to support this vital cause and help us amplify its impact.”

The charity appeal will run throughout Ramadan, culminating in a final distribution push before Eid al-Fitr in April 2025.
