The Rahmatan Lil Alamin (Blessings to all) Foundation (RLAF) is organising a collection to provide humanitarian relief for communities affected by the Gaza conflict.

The RLAF is a non-governmental organisation set up by MUIS (Islamic Religious Council of Singapore) in 2005 for the Singaporean Muslim community to render compassion to the poor, needy and victims of disaster regardless of faith or race.
