-
Child Sponsorship
School fees, healthcare, nutrition and a safe home for sponsored children and orphans — with progress reports sent back to you.

Sadaqah Jariyah
A well, a classroom, a Qur’an. Ongoing charity keeps returning reward long after the gift itself has been made.
-
Global Health
Clinics, mobile units and medical supplies reaching people the health system has left behind, in conflict zones and remote districts.

Schedule your Jumu'ah giving
Give automatically every Friday. Set it once and the reward continues without you having to remember — and it is the most reliable income a field team can plan against.
Those who spend their wealth in charity day and night, secretly and openly — their reward is with their Lord, and there will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve. Surah Al-Baqarah 2:274

Why people give through HCI
Sample content — layout only
-
I have given Zakat through HCI for eleven years. The calculator does the hard part and the receipt arrives the same day. I have never had to chase anything.
Aisha R.Monthly donor · Mississauga, ON -
What made me stay was the field reports. I could see the village, the well, the date it was finished. That is rare and it is why my family gives here.
Yusuf K.Sadaqah Jariyah donor · Calgary, AB -
Our masjid ran a Ramadan drive with HCI. Forty-six years of doing this shows — the logistics were handled before we had finished counting.
