Let’s share the khair from the blessings Allah has bestowed upon us. We may not be able to physically assist those in need all over the world, but we can do everything in our power to fundraise and raise awareness for causes that help better the lives of others.
You can create your very own crowdfunding campaign through Islamic Relief Communities on LaunchGood. Share your page with friends and family. Spread the word through social media and word of mouth. Get others talking about the issue and ask them to help out in whatever way they can.
STEP 1) Pick a cause/project that you want to support. Choose from our following communities:
HELP AT HOME
Support your local community. Islamic Relief Canada partners with many local organizations across Canada from Nisa Homes, BridgeTO, to hospitals.
IN MEMORY / WATER
Fund a water well or sponsor orphans for yourself or in the memory of a loved one. This act can be a form of sadaqa jaariyah for you and them.
BEARDS 4 BARAKAH
Our most insta-worthy fundraiser is back for a second round! The beards are coming in anyways, why not put them to a good cause?
ORPHANS
When you pledge to support an orphan, you’re not just giving them a gift – you’re giving them a new chance at a better life and opportunities.
EMERGENCIES
Advocate for a cause and get your friends involved. Launch a campaign for an emergency in Yemen, Palestine, Myanmar or Syria.
MINI CHANGEMAKERS
Kids can pledge however much time they want to fast to raise awareness for the famine in Yemen.
