This coming Ramadan, as we reflect on mercy, generosity, and caring for those in need, we’re raising urgent support for Rohingya families living through crisis, both inside Myanmar and in refugee camps beyond its borders. Many are surviving in displacement, conflict-affected areas, and harsh living conditions where daily essentials like food, clean water, and medical care are not guaranteed.
We welcome Zakat and Sadaqah during this blessed month, and we also invite all compassionate supporters, from every background, to stand with Rohingya communities as they endure unimaginable hardship and work to rebuild their lives with dignity.
Important note about your giving:
Because Zakat has stricter rules, we want to be fully transparent and responsible in how we handle it. Zakat donations will be distributed only to individuals and families who are eligible to receive Zakat. Meanwhile, Sadaqah and other generous donations will be used to support those most in need, including vulnerable families and displaced communities, based on urgency and humanitarian need.
How Your Donation Helps (Inside & Outside Myanmar)
Your support can do more than provide emergency relief, it can help Rohingya and other displaced families rebuild their lives with dignity through livelihood support, both inside Myanmar and across the border.
With just 10,000 THB, we can help provide basic documentation support for people living along the Thai–Myanmar border, giving them a chance to work legally and earn income instead of being trapped in dependence and fear.
Inside Myanmar, we also support small livelihood projects that help families survive and recover after displacement and crisis. For example, in Haya Village, we funded a vegetable farming project supporting 35 farmers (35 families / approximately 210 people). Each farmer received 106,000 MMK to purchase seeds needed to grow food and generate income:
• Potato seed (1kg): 35,000 MMK
• Onion seed (1kg): 35,000 MMK
• Local bean seed (1kg): 36,000 MMK
Total: 106,000 MMK per farmer
Farmers shared that vegetable farming often requires 300,000–400,000 MMK in total, but even this support made a real difference, helping families plant, harvest, and keep going through hardship.
We are also seeing growing need among Rohingya families arriving in border areas since the coup. When families are in urgent distress, we provide one-time emergency support (5,000 THB) to help them stabilize, survive, and take the next step forward.
Some livelihoods are small but life-changing, even a simple net-making income can bring in roughly 4,000 MMK (around $1) per day, which may not sound like much, but in rural villages it can be the difference between eating or going hungry.
This coming Ramadan, we’re asking you to stand with Rohingya families who are doing everything they can to survive and rebuild. Please donate what you can today, whether it’s your Zakat, Sadaqah, or a simple act of compassion and help provide livelihood support, emergency relief, and a path forward for families inside Myanmar and across the border. And if you’re unable to give right now, sharing this campaign is a powerful way to help reach someone who can.
