Help Provide Aid to Families in Need
Somalia is facing the worst drought in decades, putting the lives of millions in danger
Somalia is experiencing a severe drought, leaving millions in urgent need of help. According to the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), prolonged dry spells have devastated communities across the country.
Around 2.5 million people across 26 districts are living in areas that are moderately or severely affected.
For families in Somalia, every day is a fight for survival. With limited access to clean water, food, and livelihoods, many face hunger and displacement.
Children are especially vulnerable to malnutrition and disease as the drought continues to affect millions.
Muslim Hands teams are on the ground in Somalia, delivering life-saving assistance.
We are providing emergency food packs to those most in need.
Your Sadaqah and Zakat can help bring relief to drought-affected families, providing nourishment, restoring hope, and saving lives.

Life in an IDP Camp: Boolo's Story
Boolo and her family joined her brother in a camp for internally displaced people in Mogadishu from lower Shabeellle.
Boolo was forced to relocate after the drought had dried up her stock and killed her livestock, eliminating her only sources of income.
Before settling in the camp, the family tried to earn a living farming other people's land in a small village 8 KM away, but the drought dried up their work and eventually, they had no other choice but to seek humanitarian assistance.
Boolo now works as a domestic worker, earning less than $3/day as she struggles to put food on the table for her family.
The situations in IDP camps in Mogadishu are dire - people like Boolo face every day without some of their most basic needs being met.
Your Zakat and Sadaqah can help provide life-saving food and clean water to families in desperate need, as well as contribute to sustainable solutions to lift families like Boloo's out of poverty.
