Western Muslim Student Association Orphan Sponsorship Program

Western Muslim Students Association is organizing this fundraiser to benefit * Orphan Sponsorship. *

*Allah SWT says in Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayah 215:*

/"They ask you, [O Muḥammad], what they should spend. Say, 'Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler. And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allāh is Knowing of it.'" /

As students it is our duty to educate the world and create positive change. As Muslims it is our duty to care for those around us, especially orphans. The Western MSA and Islamic Relief Canada would like to give you that opportunity through the Orphan Sponsorship Program where we support 10 orphans around the world.

Your money goes to the orphans in the form of clothing, food, housing and education, to build up their livelihood and allow them to lead a happy, healthy life.

You have the opportunity to change lives, and Allah SWT is all knowing, so do not underestimate your abilities.

* Orphan Charity: Save a child’s life today​ *
For many orphaned children, the reality of poverty is a daily burden. Left wondering: where will my next meal come from? Where are we going to live? If we get sick and can’t afford medicine…will we survive? Every day is a challenge.

Deprived of their education, health care and safe places to play and grow, orphaned kids are incredibly vulnerable and face a bleak future. They need critical care and support – and that’s where Islamic Relief comes in.

With your support, you can help us save orphans and transform the lives of vulnerable children around the world.

* Support Orphan Care Projects *
If you can’t afford to sponsor an orphan on a 1-1 basis, there is still a way you can support orphans and children in need! Through our Orphan Care Projects, your donation is pooled together to support orphans who are in need of some extra care, assist their mothers and even entire orphan families.

For just $30/month or any amount you choose – your support is allocated to meet their most essential needs, including:

Medical Aid: Assistive equipment, surgeries, therapy or treatment Educational Support: Tuition fees, educational materials, tools, or skills training Shelter Repair: Home repairs, electricity supply, clean water or sanitation facilities Orphan Projects: Supporting education, health, social welfare, sports and leisure activities
Through our Orphan Care Projects fund, we work as a Muslim orphan charity to provide child-friendly safe spaces, empower communities and develop long-term solutions to poverty and critical issues such as human trafficking, child labour, and child marriage.

* Giving Charity to Orphans in Islam *
Charity protects one from calamity, acts as shade on the Day of Judgement, and showers us in Allah’s (SWT) blessings. Your Zakat and Sadaqah Jariyah when you sponsor an orphan or provide medical and education support to needy children contains so much barakah.

The importance of giving charity to orphans in Islam is highlighted by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ:

/“The best house among the Muslims is the house in which orphans are well-treated. The worst house is the one in which orphans are ill-treated.” / [Bukhari]

Not only will your donation mean that orphans and their families benefit immediately but these programs will provide the tools to support themselves and pass on to the next generation, and the benefit will be ongoing. It is a Sadaqah Jariyah unlike any other!

This means the effect of your one donation will be multiplied to help orphan after orphan and family after family access food, medical care, clean water, and education in a dignified manner for years to come. It is the gift that keeps giving, and will continuously help you to earn rewards.




Islamic Relief works with communities to strengthen their resilience to calamities, and we provide vital emergency aid when disasters occur.

We help the impoverished access basic services, including education, water and sanitation, as well as healthcare. We provide lasting routes out of poverty through our sustainable development schemes. Our integrated approach to progress is transforming communities worldwide.
