Beyond fasting, Ramadan is synonymous with charity. Indeed, it is normally known as the month of charity.

"The likeness of those who spend their wealth in Allah´s way is as the likeness of a grain which groweth seven ears, in every ear a hundred grains. Allah giveth increase manifold to whom He will. Allah is All-Embracing, All-Knowing."Pickthall - The Cow, 261
