Thousands of Muslims across the United Kingdom are preparing to celebrate Eid Al-Adha, the Festival of Sacrifice, on Friday, June 6th, 2025. In light of this significant Islamic holiday, Herefords-based water poverty alleviation charity Hope Spring Water has announced the launch of a new set of online greeting cards designed for the occasion. These e-cards can be sent for free or with a donation to support essential water projects in vulnerable communities in West Africa.
Eid Al-Adha commemorates the story of Prophet Ibrahim’s unwavering faith and his willingness to sacrifice for a higher cause. In the spirit of giving, Hope Spring Water has created a way for people to connect with loved ones through thoughtful, culturally mindful e-cards while also supporting a worthy cause.
According to Seun Olonade, volunteer manager at Hope Spring, Eid Al-Adha is more than just a time of celebration. It is a time to embrace values such as compassion, community, and responsibility, all of which align with the charity’s mission. Sending an e-card becomes a meaningful way to spread joy while also helping to provide access to clean water.
This year, Hope Spring is also emphasizing the connection between climate change and water scarcity. Olonade explains, “Many people do not realize how global environmental challenges are affecting water access in regions like West Africa. Our e-cards serve as a gentle reminder of how small actions, such as supporting a water charity, can contribute to lasting change.”
Unlike traditional paper cards, Hope Spring’s digital e-cards are environmentally friendly and easily accessible. This makes them an ideal option for the modern, conscious giver. The e-card platform also allows users to personalize their messages, schedule delivery, and share greetings across different time zones. There is even an option to send cards via WhatsApp, a convenient feature for diaspora communities looking to connect with loved ones across borders.
With Eid Al-Adha fast approaching, Hope Spring encourages celebrants to start exploring the platform early and choose cards that combine festive cheer with social impact. For more information and to send an e-card, visit the Eid Adha greetings e-card page on the Hope Spring website.
