Transform the life of a vulnerable child by supporting our Orphan Appeals with UK Islamic Mission. Together, through your kindness, we can deliver hope, safety, education, and happiness to children who have lost their parents at a young age.
Millions of children around the world are growing up without the love and care of their parents. According to UNICEF, statistics show that there are an estimated 153 million orphaned children worldwide. Many of these children are facing hunger and poverty, dealing with daily emotional trauma and in search of shelter to survive.
Though many of us have the blessings to see our children thrive within our homes in a safe space, surrounded by care and love, orphaned children in poverty-stricken regions are struggling to survive. By being forced to live on the streets, many have little or no access to clean water, hot food, healthcare, and education. Many of these children often have to carry the responsibly over their younger siblings after losing their parents.
These children deserve more than just the basic needs to survive. They need to feel safe, valued and cared for, so that they can have hope for their future. Through our Orphans Sponsorship Programme, you have the chance to help provide a child in need with the support that they require to rebuild their life with dignity.
“And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive.” [Quran 76:8]

No child deserves to be deprived of a childhood filled with care and kindness. However, sadly, there are many orphaned children around the world deprived of their basic rights. With no support, and trapped within the cycles of poverty and hunger, these children are facing the fight to survive.
UK Islamic Mission’s Orphans Appeal is in place to support vulnerable children across different communities. Through our Islamic Orphan Sponsorship, food, shelter, clothing, education, healthcare, and emotional support are given to these children to help them grow with security and confidence, delivering the chance to achieve a brighter future.
When you sponsor an orphan, your support provides school fees, nutritious meals, warm clothing, and a safe place to live. When you begin your journey of sponsorship, you are not only financially supporting the child, but you are also becoming a lifeline that reminds them that they are not forgotten.
Whether you choose to sponsor a Muslim orphan or support wider orphan relief projects, your donation has the ability to transform lives and restore hope to those children facing daily hardships.
Caring for orphans holds a special place in Islam. Both the Quran and Hadith remind the believers to show mercy and kindness towards children. Allah tells us in the Quran,
“So as for the orphan, do not oppress him.” [Quran 93:9].
The Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) also spoke about the great reward for those who care for orphaned children. He said,
“The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this, “and he held his two fingers together. (Bukhari)
