Helping Hand for Relief and Development has many different programs that serve less fortunate people all over the world. I used their easy Zakat calculator to determine how much of my savings should be donated per Islamic tradition. They made the process easy and straightforward and I can be sure that my money will go to approved beneficiaries.
I have donated and volunteered for this organization many times. They seem to be really straight forward when you ask them questions. They can provide proof of all their work and I like that about an organization when you ask them. It is hard for people to find trustworthy people to donate to but I can trust their work. I really like their Orphan Sponsorship program in which they tell you the kid that you helped and their progress (almost like a report card). I haven't been oversees to see their actual work like Haiti or Pakistan but have heard some young guys who have went and seen and did the work and describe it. I wish to go and do some of the work first hand as well.
