Give Every Child the Chance to Learn and Thrive
Sponsor a child with disabilities in Yemen, Somalia, or Pakistan and ensure their future, no matter the obstacles and challenges they face. With your support, children can access the tailored education and care they need to live with dignity and independence. In countries affected by conflict and poverty, life for a child with disabilities is especially difficult. Without access to education, healthcare, or proper support, their future opportunities are severely limited.
Why Your Sponsorship Matters?
Through your sponsorship, a child will benefit from: Specialised education tailored to their needs, safe and supportive environments where they can learn, and where transportation and food are provided when needed. They also benefit from access to unique facilities such as: A special needs centre in Pakistan, a school for the deaf in Somalia, and an educational and support centre in Yemen for children with cerebral palsy.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q. What will I receive as a sponsor?
- Q. How long is the Hifz sponsorship programme?
- Q. How can I send a gift to my sponsored child?
- Q. Can I visit them myself?
- Q. Can I contact the sponsored child?

- Q. What happens to my sponsorship if the child I sponsor leaves sponsorship program?
A. Throughout your time as a sponsor, we’ll continue to send you regular updates on the progress of your sponsored child.
A. Hifz sponsorship is a three to six-year programme, depending on individuals memorising ability. After which, the child will be in a much better position to seek employment or to teach others.
A. Call our donation line on 0115 911 7222 and tell us that you would like to send a gift to your sponsored child. You will need to provide the child's ID and their country. This information can be found on your sponsorship pack, but if you can’t find the details, a member of our team can help.
A. Visits cannot be made directly to the student’s home or Madrassa in line with our Muslim Hands Policy. For safety purposes, we will not give out any personal information, such as the child’s address or telephone number.
If you would like to visit your child, please contact us three months prior to your visit either by emailing your request to mail@muslimhands.org.uk or by calling 0115 911 7222. You will need to provide dates on when you intend to visit and our team will facilitate the visit.
A. Yes, you can via a written letter, email or greeting card. You should email a copy of the letter or card as an attachment to sponsorship@muslimhands.org.uk. We will ensure that your correspondence reaches them. However, we cannot always guarantee a reply as we leave the choice to write back with the child.
A. There might be more than one donor associated with the Hifz student. The reason for this is to ensure that your sponsored student receives the best quality education and services in their respective locations.
A. We are committed to transparency and will inform you if the child you sponsor is no longer part of the program. This may happen if the child completes Hifz, moves away, the charity concludes its work in the area, the unfortunate event of the child’s passing or other relevant reasons which may cause them to leave the sponsorship programme.
In such cases, you will typically be offered the opportunity to sponsor another child in need or redirect your support to the Hifz fund. You will always be kept informed and given options that reflect your ongoing commitment to making a difference.
