Uplift Newcomers & Refugees

Your Zakat Helps Them Rebuild Their Lives

Meet the Noori Family
Arriving with only their backpacks and a few essentials, the Noori family left everything they knew to seek refuge and safety in Canada. This family of five shares a single room in a hotel, and despite government support, they barely have enough food to feed their family, with no access to halal options.
‍
Supporting Muslim refugees and newcomers is vital to building a community that cares for and uplifts one another. By providing food, rent assistance, and essentials, we can help them rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
