About this project
We provide financial assistance to poor and deserving individuals through Sadaqat and Zakat resources, supporting eligible beneficiaries facing hardship in meeting essential household and personal needs.
Approximately 170 families have been assisted with daily living needs, emergency support, health costs, education and other essential expenses.
Assistance is provided according to established procedures and, in the case of Zakat, in accordance with Islamic principles — Zakat funds are kept distinct and go only to those eligible to receive them.
How it works
- Zakat kept distinct and given only to eligible recipients
- Sadaqat used more broadly across essential needs
- Covers daily living, emergencies, health and education
- Eligibility established before any disbursement
