Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Natural and man-made disasters create food, water and healthcare shortages for displaced people. Poverty and governmental neglect cause some populations around the world to go without clean water, access to medicine and education. Lack of resources hinder people's ability to thrive intellectually and economically. Baitulmaal addresses these issues through emergency humanitarian aid that includes food, water and medicine as well as sustenance aid for impoverished areas that lack water wells, educational facilities and materials, and shelter. Baitulmaal also has seasonal programs to enrich the lives of people suffering from poverty.
