Response to Humanitarian Crisis

Years of conflict, inflation, and climate change have triggered a severe humanitarian crisis in Mali, with 9 out of 10 people facing hunger and 1.5 million children suffering from acute malnutrition. Despite these challenges, Zakat Foundation of America is providing crucial support through food security, orphan care, education, and clean water. Since 2015, our health care programs have served thousands of women annually across five clinics, delivering essential care and medicine. Additionally, our Livestock Husbandry Program, Water Wells, Ramadan Iftar meals, and Udhiyah sacrifice feed thousands each year, while also supporting mosques, schools, and emergency relief.
