Why should you deploy with us?

This deployment is very limited and very exclusive, we are only taking a select few volunteers in December. It has come about after the events team have received many emails/texts asking them when they will be doing a Mali deployment. If successful this deployment could raise in the upwards region of £50,000.

There are many benefits for volunteers as they will be able to see where the donations are going first-hand and up close. They will also be physically helping the finishing of multiple projects.

And so we invite you to join us in 2024 to deliver a clean water supply, 3 classrooms and a new health centre that will aid hundreds of people in Mali.

With your donations, Muslim Hands has been providing the people of Mali with vital emergency relief including food, water and educational facilities, as we as medical clinics.

Now, you can personally visit Mali to physically aid our brothers and sisters. By signing up for this experience of a lifetime, you will see first-hand the impact of your donations, as well as greet the people in Mali and hear their stories for yourself.

Join us and raise £3,500 to make a difference in 2024.


Providing aid in Mali

During this deployment we aim to tackle 3 issues in a village in Mali.
-Providing a clean water supply
-Providing classrooms for children to be educated
-A health centre

Healthcare, clean water and basic education are fundamental human rights - yet millions of people around the world lack access to even the most basic services. For over 25 years, we have been committed to equalising access to health services, clean water and education to build a fairer future for all.

With your support, we operate a myriad of health projects in vulnerable communities across the world that are saving lives every day. Your donations help build health units, operate ambulance services, provide life-changing surgeries, and provide emergency medical aid in times of crisis. With your donations we also provide clean water supplies to villages who are in dire need of it. This allows people to avoid drinking contaminated water, children spend less time walking far to gather water which also means they get to spend more time in schools. With your donations we also help to provide the best facilities for children to get an education.
