Campaign Story

1 in 5 children worldwide living in extreme poverty, many of these simple
necessities and rights are out of reach. Instead, their life is incredibly challenging,
with the risk of illiteracy, disease, child labor, lifelong poverty and even death.

Orphans are the most vulnerable in any society. After having lost one or both parents, these children are at risk of a life of poverty and sickness. In situations of conflict or natural disaster, the lack of access to basic necessities such as food, water and shelter results in displacement and a struggle to survive.

Islamic Relief’s global efforts help sponsor over 85,000 orphans around the world, transforming their lives with opportunities and aid.

Islamic Relief’s Orphan Sponsorship Programme is one of the best in its field and targets numerous countries in need. This is simply because Islamic Relief believes in protecting and fulfilling the rights of children.

Your Donation enables us to cover the cost of emergency care, travel to hospitals,
prescriptions, and medical equipment such as wheelchairs, hearing aids, and
eyewear. These funds also help orphans affected by chronic and long-term illnesses
such as asthma and diabetes.
