From Hardship to Hope: Changing Children’s Lives

Shares

Orphans are among the world’s most vulnerable, facing life without parental care, protection, or stability. With an estimated 153 million orphaned children globally (UNICEF), many are left exposed to exploitation, neglect, and hardship due to conflict, disease, poverty, or disaster.

(WHO/UNICEF 2023)

Beyond immediate relief, orphaned children need long-term support to rebuild their lives – safe housing, access to education, healthcare, and emotional care. Strengthening community-based solutions and family care systems is essential to providing the stability and opportunities they deserve.

At International Waqf Fund, we’ve introduced the Orphans Waqf Share, a sustainable initiative designed to provide ongoing care and support, empowering orphaned children to thrive and build independent, dignified lives.

Importance of Orphans Waqf Share

Orphans Waqf model is a powerful way to ensure lasting support for vulnerable children.

Through Waqf, your contribution continues to make an impact for generations.

Inspired by the high status Islam gives to orphans, it stands as the perfect means:

“They ask you, [O Muhammad], what they should spend [in charity]. Say, ‘Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveller. And whatever you do of good – indeed Allah is knowing of it.’”

Qur’an | Al-Baqarah: 215

Lifelong Support, One Child at a Time​
