Hygiene Packs
Hygiene poverty affects millions of mothers and their children who live in cramped dwellings, squalid camps, or overcrowded slums where there are no basic amenities.
When a family is poor or homeless, personal hygiene is often neglected in favour of more urgent needs like food and shelter. Yet, hygiene holds more value than we often realise.
Enabling a poor or displaced person to wash and care for themselves helps preserve their health, dignity, and self-respect. Hygiene supplies also keep children free from disease, mothers dignified, and fathers healthy.
In the aftermath of war and natural disasters, it’s vital that suffering families receive proper hygiene support, so they’re not forced to keep sacrificing hygiene in the struggle for food, shelter, and survival.
‘Purity (cleanliness) is half of faith.’ [Muslim]
Preserve More than Just Health
Ummah Welfare Trust is working to improve hygiene conditions in impoverished communities by providing hygiene kits filled with essentials: soaps, shampoos, nappies, sanitation supplies, toiletries, and more.
These packs help protect the health, dignity, and self-esteem of our brothers and sisters who’ve been left with nothing.
Support this unique but hugely impactful project with your Zakat, Sadaqah, or Lillah. Uphold a family’s health and dignity by donating a hygiene pack today.
Personal hygiene and grooming are things most of us take for granted—until we’re unable to uphold them.
The Sadaqah Jariyah of Helping with Hygiene
Providing hygiene supplies will create a profound Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity) legacy for you or the one on whose behalf you donate. The ongoing rewards you will receive for bringing dignity through include, but are not limited to:
- Preserving the dignity of displaced families.
- Ensuring families and their children remain healthy.
- Improve families’ morale and well-being, which suffer under prolonged displacement.
- The daily acts of worship enabled by cleanliness and hydration.
- Preventing the spread of germs, parasites and disease that tough camp conditions can foster.
