A Kilmarnock restaurant will donate 100 per cent of their sales on Monday to help children in Gaza.
Brown Munde will be opening it's doors on Bank Holiday Monday, August 4, where 100 per cent of the sales from every meal and drink, will go towards helping the people of Gaza.
Save the Children's Gaza Emergency Fund is set to benefit after the owners of the Indian-style tapas venue, Parveen Sharma and Harjinder Singh, shared that as parents of very young children themselves, they "can't sit back and do nothing while children in Gaza are starving, displaced, and living in constant fear".
Save the Children's Gaza Emergency Fund provides urgent food, shelter, and care for displaced families and traumatised children.
Parveen and Harjinder said: "Save the Children have reposted multiple crimes committed against children - children just like our own - who are innocent human beings. We want to do everything we can to help the young children of Gaza.
"We feel as a business with a platform we should be using our voice to speak up for the children of Gaza.
"We are hoping to not only raise some money for a very worthwhile charity but to raise awareness about the crimes being committed daily against children to bring attention to the ongoing crimes against children in the hope our government feels the pressure to help protect the children of Gaza."
They added: "The war in Gaza must end. The killing of children must stop.
"Since October 2023, tens of thousands have been killed - including children. Families have lost everything. Homes, schools, hospitals - all destroyed.
"People are trapped without clean water, food, medicine, or safety.
"It's heartbreaking, and it's unacceptable."
Brown Munde, located at 7–9 Princes Street, will be open from 4pm until 9.30pm. To book a table, please contact the restaurant on 01563508050.
