AKRAM AID.
CHANGING LIVES
Akram Aid is a registered UK charity dedicated to making a positive difference to the lives of people around the world. As a small non-profit organisation, our work is driven by a committed team of volunteers and strengthened through partnerships with like-minded charities that share our values and vision.
Our mission is to improve living standards and create opportunities for a better quality of life. We provide essential support, including food, clean water, medical care and education, with our projects focused on helping those who are poor, vulnerable, disadvantaged and in need.
By the grace of Allah and with the continued generosity of our donors, we have been able to support communities across Bangladesh, Egypt, Gambia, Gaza, India, Pakistan, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Yemen and the UK.
Save Lives by
Donating Today!
Volunteering your time to support charitable causes is incredibly rewarding, especially when you see the relief and happiness on a beneficiary’s face as a burden is lifted, even if only for a short while. Knowing that your support has eased someone’s hardship and brought them comfort makes every effort worthwhile.
Tawakkul Allah — trust in Allah’s plan. We do not focus on numbers or measure our success by how many people we reach. Instead, we believe in helping one person at a time, making a genuine difference wherever we can, and leaving the outcome in the hands of Allah. This is the foundation of our work and why we firmly believe in Tawakkul Allah.
Alhamdulillah, by the grace of Allah and through the generosity of our donors, our charitable work has touched and transformed many lives. We are determined to continue this important work, but we cannot do it alone. Your continued support enables us to reach those who are most vulnerable and provide them with the help and dignity they deserve.

COMMITMENT
TO OUR 100% DONATION POLICY
We operate a 100% donation policy, ensuring that every penny of your donation goes directly towards the charitable cause you have chosen to support, with no deductions taken from your donation. Our administrative and operational costs, including marketing, administration and other overheads, are covered through sponsor contributions, charity auctions and fundraising events. We also utilise Gift Aid to help meet our running costs. Any surplus Gift Aid funds are reinvested into our charitable projects, particularly where additional funding is needed to complete a project or where donations fall short of the required amount. Â
This approach allows us to maximise the impact of every donation and ensure that your generosity reaches those who need it most.

EMERGENCY APPEALS
At Akram Aid, we strive to respond swiftly and effectively to both natural and man-made disasters, supporting communities when they are faced with crisis and hardship.
We continually ask the Almighty for His mercy and protection, praying that He keeps us, our families and our loved ones safe from all forms of harm and calamity. However, when disaster strikes and communities are left in urgent need, Akram Aid carefully assesses the situation and, where possible, seeks to be at the forefront of the humanitarian response, supporting our brothers and sisters in need, Insha’Allah.
We pray that Allah SWT protects the Ummah from all calamities, eases the suffering of those affected, and grants strength and relief to those facing hardship.
Ameen.
ZAKAT
DONATIONS
Akram Aid is committed to distributing Zakat to eligible Muslims and communities around the world, helping those who are most vulnerable and in need.
One of our most successful Zakat projects supports struggling Rohingya families through direct cash assistance. This vital support enables families to meet essential day-to-day needs with dignity and provides a much-needed lifeline during times of hardship.
As Zakat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, your contribution can make a profound difference to the lives of those facing poverty and difficult circumstances.
Give your Zakat with confidence and help Akram Aid bring hope, dignity and meaningful support to Muslim families in need.
