Sponsor a Child with a Disability
Empower children with disabilities through education and essential support.
Every Child Deserves a Chance
According to UNICEF, nearly 240 million children worldwide experience some form of disability.
Muslim Hands Canada supports children with visual impairments, learning disabilities, and those who are deaf. Currently, we have partnered with Al Muddassar Trust, in Pakistan, working for the rights of these children and their families.
Sponsor a child with a disability in Pakistan for just $60 a month ($2 a day) and provide them with essentials such as meals, healthcare, a secure environment, and specialized services, including rehabilitation, vocational training, and education.
(Quran 17:24)
And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy and say: ‘My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was small.

You can also request an update on how your sponsored child is getting on by sending an email to mail@muslimhands.ca. Please include your donor ID and child ID within the email.

It would be ideal if you could provide 60 days’ notice so we can find a replacement sponsor for your child. If you cannot do this, in the interim, we will support your child through the General Children Fund until the child finds another sponsor. If you cannot sponsor a child, you can continue supporting children with disabilities by donating to this Children with disabilities fund.
