I have been a long time supporter and have been a volunteer with IRUSA for almost a year. I have participated in relief and aid efforts that are local (2,000 food box pack-out for local families), national (rebuilding homes for flood victims in North Carolina) , and international (packed 10,000 meals for Uganda and a 120 mile charity bike ride in Turkey to raise funds for water wells in Africa). Every experience I have had with them has been first rate. The staff, events, and efforts are extremely organized, focused, professional, polite and courteous. Their operations are world class and they work with other world class organizations, both faith based and non faith based, to make things happen. There are no political affiliations, it’s just pure charity. They are there wherever there is crisis, wherever long term recovery is needed, and wherever there is need. Donation money is not squandered and is used effectively and my understanding is that more than 90% of donations goes towards projects with the remaining less than 10% towards administrative costs. That’s pretty good! I have met many amazing people, both staff and volunteers, through working with them. I actually wish I could participate more because of how positive the experiences are. Regardless of your faith, Islamic Relief is great charitable organization on all fronts and I highly recommend them to everyone looking for a charity to donate their time and/or to.
We joined IR USA for the cycling challenge in Turkey to raise funds for a borehole in Somalia. It was a really well organised tour. A detailed itinerary was provided before the tour and everything went really smoothly. There were police escorts, an ambulance and a support vehicle with the group at all times. We visited some historic sites in Turkey that otherwise I may never have visited. Finally we arrived in Istanbul and were also taken on a tour around the city. I found the volunteers and organisers from the different countries motivational and we all helped each other through the challenge. Even though we were all from different backgrounds and different pars of the world we were all there for the same reason hence had a common purpose.

I participated in a fundraising event with IR USA in Turkey, biking 155 km and raising funds for water projects for Chad and Mali. This was an incredible trip and event! IR USA clearly is a world class non-profit, organising engaging and rewarding fundraising events. I will definitely be planning an annual fundraising trip with them.
The Islamic Relief website is easy to use. I can see exactly where my donations are going to!! I love the blogs and social media posts! they are always active in different communities
Becoming a volunteer for IRUSA was the best decision I have ever made. It is a truly fun experience. The staff makes sure the events are organized which allow for the events to run smoothly and the guests always enjoy their time.
Special thanks to the IRUSA North East team and shout out to Sanat the most amazing Events coordinator!
Islamic Relief USA is a top tier non profit. All of their employees are incredibly motivated and dedicated to helping make the world a better place, and their events are so much fun both for attendees and volunteers alike! The level of professionalism and care with which they handle their events, be it a large gala or a small volunteer event is unparalleled. They are an honor to work with and their work is and will continue to benefit millions in need.
Alhamdulillah, I am glad I find this website, will always donate whenever I can. May Allah bless us all for helping each other in times of need
Islamic relief is the best way to help struggling muslims all over the map from Palestine to Syria, from Dubai to Europe. Globally this organization would provide the during times of need when the politics and governments oppress the populations of human life's. The world is in desperate need of brave people who go out on the limb who risk themselves to assist the needy. IRUSA is a family of people who's support extends their open arms of love to the children while never pressuring people to donate as other organizations do constantly.
People in need depend on such love and support. Keeping people in faith to remind them that no matter hard life gets good people are still out there.
Take care and All Praise is due to Allah.

I am glad that there are people like us out there who have offered support to Syrians, Palestinians, Yemens, Afghans, Iranians, Turkish, people of the Ummah basically who show the world leaders who are the cause behind this evil actions. I will continue include in my dua that this harm to humanity must stop for the Love of Allah. (s.w.t.)
I hope to give more and that is why I strive hard in life to find success in order to contribute donations. I have always struggled to find work, love, friends, and getting up for fajr.... Well my problems are nothing incomparably to them innocent people.
I lost my brother 5 months ago and I know the pain it brings... He was healthy young and full of goodness yet his life was taken away by the same enemies, corrupt people and evil doers...
May we find peace in this life and the next. And protection from Allah (s.w.t) against the punishment of hellfire the home of the evil ones resting place...
IRUSA (Islamic Relief USA) is among the top leading non-profit organizations that I have known and have witnessed their work in different countries. Though the name might sound like helping only Muslims, but I have seen their projects helping whole community regardless of what their religious believes are. Seeing them working and supported by USAID, UKAID, European Commission and other large donor agencies, also a proof of their credibility which is helpful in knowing that this organization is all good to work with regardless of who you are.

I am a regular donor of Islamic Relief USA and I have worked with this world's renowned charity in South Asia, Africa and USA. I have first-hand experience of how the services are delivered to the people who are in need in some of the world's difficult to reach areas that are affected by disasters, wars and conflicts. Hats off for IRUSA! Keep up the good work. At Islamic Relief, staff not only fulfill their responsibilities but in such a responsible way that most of times they go out of the way. Some times they put their own lives at risk but that is to save many other lives. They work in a professional manner so all the due diligence is done before deploying staff on the ground particularly in war and conflict zones.
IRUSA is such a blessing and all the hard work that they do makes me want to donate even more. As a young a child and until now I have always dreamt of making such a difference in the world and I look forward to the day when I finish my university and I am able to make a direct impact in the children and family lives. A million thanks to this organization and good tidings to all of those who donate and help this wonderful organization.

I am a Muslim convert looking to ensure that I can lend some support to my fellow human beings. The website has a zakaht (charity) calculator which facilitates the process and Islamic Relief has a great variety of programmes and initiatives you can choose from. Our family decided to sponsor an orphan and then I began chatting with a really helpful person from the Islamic Relief who informed me of the places with the most need. This was extremely helpful and the process was easy. Our family looks forward to helping this young person the best we can throughout the year.
I went to the website, found what I was looking for and I pretty much got done with it. It is always a good thing to give something when you have the chance to. May Allah bless every single person who dedicated their time, wealth, integrity and modesty towards those who are in the dire need of help. May Allah reward them and bless them!
Bissmillahullrahmaarahim. I am a muslim brother that has seen his collection of struggle and disarray. Islamic Relief Fund visit my masjid during Ramadan—a year ago, I was not financially stable. I promised myself then, that when I am on my feet that I will not stop the charitable donation for the Umma Inshallah. Thanks be to the help of my entire community. IRU is a continuing benefactor as well as the Sunna that is bestowing me by giving for the afterlife. Ameen Inshallah.

I am your Muslim sister al baghdadi natalya. I from Ukraine city Lugansk because of the war we lost our apartment. because of the war began the economic collapse. there is not jobs in our city but the work is there in city Kiev there are small salaries. we do not have a way out and hope in life. I know as a Muslim sister how prophet Muhammad said ((that we are one people even if we are of different nations and different colors if one of us feels pain and needs help, then the Muslim people have to support him in a difficult minute)) .
Allah said in the Koran is a Muslim who holds a prayer and gives help (Sadaka) who does not do so and he has money Allah will not accept his prayer.
we have so many Muslims in the world if every Muslim will sacrifice only one dolor , in the world will not be poor Muslims.
please help your Muslim sister to buy a house in Kiev where there is jobs. my heart full of hope that you will not reject help for me.
if you do not have the opportunity to help tell the other brothers that they help me if the brothers do not help then let them sit at home unnecessary to go to the mosque.
Allah is not an accept prayer from stingy people.
For Allah they are not Muslims. I believe that there are real Muslims.
