Give Sadaqah where it is needed most
Sadaqah is a voluntary act of charity that brings hope and relief to those in need. Every act of generosity is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable families.
Your Sadaqah helps Islamic Relief respond where the need is greatest, providing food, clean water, healthcare, emergency aid, and long-term support to communities around the world.

Whether it is an obligation you are fulfilling or a gift you are moved to make, there is a clear path for it here.
Trusted with your amanah since 2006
You are not simply giving money. You are handing over an obligation, and that places a duty on our side too. Here is how we account for it.
Where your dollar goes
85.5 cents of every dollar goes into programs. The remaining 14.5% covers administration and fundraising, the work that keeps those programs running.

Clean water, and the hours it gives back
In 2025 your giving funded 22 water projects across 16 countries, from Albania to Syria, reaching 529,644 people. Some are finished and already serving. Others are still being built.
A well is Sadaqah Jariyah in the most literal sense. It keeps serving long after the person who funded it has moved on.
