Afghanistan's Children Need Help

Today there is peace. But the hardships remain.

Afghan refugees have suffered over four decades of displacement. During the 1980s, over 1.5 million Muslims were forced to flee their homeland during the Soviet invasion. In the decade after, thousands more became refugees amid the brutal civil strife. And in the last twenty years, a further one million were displaced by the War on Terror.

The cynical freezing of assets in 2021 has left many refugee families penniless and hungry. Over one million refugee children are thought to be facing starvation.

The charity has delivered over £17 million
of food and household supplies in the past year, alhamdulillah.

54,480

families given food assistance

25,285

families given winter supplies

9,500

families given Sadaqatul Fitr

4,500

Orphans given monthly support

‘Surely, from amongst the deed that make Jannah incumbent (upon the believer) is the feeding of a hungry Muslim.’ [Hakim]

Ummah Welfare Trust has launched an emergency appeal to help displaced Afghan refugees survive the crippling poverty. The charity is working to deliver aid to those who need it most in refugee communities.

£100 can provide food supplies to a large refugee family.

The world is watching as innocent refugee children die. We mustn’t do the same.

Donate your Zakat, Sadaqah and Lillah for this appeal and help Afghan refugees live honourably on their feet once more.
