Empowering vulnerable communities is at the heart of what we do. By providing essential skills and tools, we enable them to transform their lives, earn their own income, and protect themselves and their families. Every step forward is a step toward lasting change. Help us in our fight against poverty. Serve Humanity. Donate now.
At Muslim Aid, we believe in providing people not just with help to relieve their hardships but also with a means to protect, develop and sustain their future.
For over 40 years, we have worked to build our long-term development programmes, which serve to enable independent, brighter futures.
You can help us to enable marginalised communities to live with dignity through restoring livelihood opportunities. This could include improving agricultural productivity, enabling access to micro-finance, or improving skills through training and support.

Nihara is 40 years old and lives with her child and father in a remote region of Sri Lanka.
She tries to find work as a tailor but it is often not enough to buy even the most basic of essentials for her family. Nihara attended entrepreneurial and cattle farm training through Muslim Aid’s Livelihood programmes. Following assessment, Muslim Aid her a pregnant cow, shed construction materials, tools and support for Nihara to run her own dairy farm. As a result she has now doubled her income and gained security for her family. Nihara feels proud and empowered about what she has achieved, her smile says it all! She is determined now to expand her farm and become a role model and mentor for other women in her village.
Our livelihood programmes address issues of inequality by empowering women and young people. We ensure that families and businesses can become self-sufficient, to serve not only themselves but also their wider communities.
Without you, we cannot continue to serve humanity. By setting up a regular gift today, you can serve to make an ongoing difference to the lives of those in the greatest of need, saving lives and transforming communities for good.

And in their wealth there was a rightful share for the beggar and the poor.
