In response to the ongoing conflict, poverty, and complex disaster in Afghanistan, we aim to reduce the poverty rates among vulnerable women through livelihood and education development opportunities.

Women are provided literacy, vocational and life-skill training, as well as community awareness sessions on the importance of education for girls.

By providing women in Herat and Nangarhar provinces with skills training, income generation tools and awareness of their right to education, your Zakat can support them to take ownership of their own lives.

In response to growing food insecurity exacerbated by the ongoing financial crisis, disasters, and rising cost of food globally, we aim to build resilience and food assistance to those in most need through food packs and vouchers.

We are specifically reaching women, children, the elderly and those in poverty living within the Bekaa area. This Zakat-eligible project will meet their immediate food needs and continue to provide access to essential food supplies throughout the year.

Your Zakat has the power to ensure no child sleeps hungry in this blessed month, that there is food on the table, and families do not fall further into poverty.

At Islamic Relief, we believe in empowering and protecting women so they can take ownership of their own lives, going from poverty to prosperity.

Women are most vulnerable when it comes to water collection, often undertaking long walks to far-off water sources in search of clean drinking water. They are alone, unprotected, and at risk of being targeted.

Our aim in Muzzaffarabad is to support women in water collection by installing water purification solutions and better access to clean water. Your Zakat protects them from risky routes and ensures safe drinking water for all!

The people of Gaza are no stranger to devastation. Ongoing violence and restrictions have severely impacted access to food, water, and healthcare in the Gaza strip.

Your Zakat provides cash assistance to help a family purchase life-saving essentials, such as food, education, clean water, sanitation and hygiene supplies, health equipment and shelter.

These cash grants are being distributed to the most vulnerable households and community groups to support their needs. Grants also support micro-businesses, which are Zakat eligible components of our multi-sectoral recovery project. Your Zakat can continue to provide struggling households, neighbourhoods and communities the support they need to survive.

Years of conflict and instability mean that millions of people across Somalia face an uncertain future and are in need of humanitarian assistance.

We aim to improve the livelihood of vulnerable communities through a multi-sectoral response. The Zakat-eligible components of this project provide primary health care services through a health facility, providing essential medical supplies and drugs to those who need it most

Additionally, your Zakat can strengthen community-level resilience by providing income-generating start-up capital to women, which allows them to create their own dignified livelihoods!

As Syria marks its 12th year of crisis and conflict, coupled with the devastation left in the wake of tragic earthquakes, we know now more than ever they need our help.

In Northern Syria, we aim to rehabilitate and support 15 schools, creating a safer learning environment for students. The Zakat-eligible component of this project will provide stipends to teachers, allowing them to continue providing high-quality education to kids in need.

Clean water is a necessity for a safe environment, and so we are installing solar panels to make water stations safe, sustainable, and accessible to all village members. Your Zakat can be the gift of clean water, sustaining generations to come!

Everyone deserves the chance to make a dignified income, to provide for their families and loved ones in an honourable way. Our project in the Bit Alfaqeh district of Yemen does just that.

This Zakat-eligible project provides cash grants to the most vulnerable families as they undergo business skills and technical training. Each family receives mentorship, coaching, and advisory services as they develop their businesses, with the goal of creating sustainable incomes.

This is how your Zakat transforms lives and breaks the cycle of poverty, ensuring people are supported as they learn and develop themselves to create dignified livelihoods!
