Elderly Fund

Provide cash assistance to elderly people in Pakistan

Around 25% of people in Pakistan live below the national poverty line (World Bank), leaving many elderly people struggling to afford food, healthcare and other daily necessities. With limited income and little social protection, older people are often among the most vulnerable people in disadvantaged communities.

Through this project, Muslim Hands provides cash assistance to elderly people in Pakistan, helping them meet essential needs with dignity. Flexible support allows recipients to prioritise urgent expenses such as medicine, food and household essentials. Your donation helps elderly people access basic necessities and live with greater security and independence.
