How you can give
Choose the best way to contribute
Every contribution matters. Select a donation type that works for you and support our efforts to uplift the community.
Whether it’s providing a grocery hamper to a family, funding counselling sessions, or contributing to our affordable housing project, your one-time donation can create immediate and meaningful impact. Every dollar makes a difference and helps us serve our community in critical ways.
A recurring donation provides us with the stability to plan long-term initiatives and continue essential services like refugee support, youth programs, and food distribution. Your monthly commitment means we can focus on sustainable growth and better support for the community, knowing we have your continued partnership.
Zakat is a cornerstone of our work. By contributing your Zakat through IslamicFamily, you ensure that your giving aligns with your faith and directly supports individuals and families who need it most. Learn more about our Zakat policy and how we distribute these funds to maximize their impact. Learn more about Effective Zakat in Canada here.
