ABOUT US:

Since its launch in April 2018, MuslimGiving has moved from strength to strength and is internationally recognised as the worlds 1st Muslim online fundraising platform. MuslimGiving is an umbrella organisation for UK based Muslim charities. Our primary goal is to help Muslim charities secure vital funds, by providing a bespoke online donation platform for the charities, fundraisers, and donors. We support our registered charities to promote public benefits and charitable purposes. We are passionate about MuslimGiving and strongly believe in what it can do to empower the Muslim community living in the UK. As the first dedicated platform catering to Muslim charities, fundraisers and donors, our platform allows users to find their favourite charities or causes to make a single or regular donation. Individuals can easily create their own campaign or fundraising page to start raising for projects or special individuals in their time of need. Our straightforward and smooth platform makes it easy for donors to make donations, whether they’re using a PC, smartphone or a tablet. MuslimGiving is a much-needed platform which has been developed through research conducted with charities, fundraisers, and donors. The team behind MuslimGiving have a collective experience of over 50 years who have seen first-hand both the needs and challenges for charities, fundraisers, and donors. Having worked directly in the Muslim community with various organisations in this field, we wanted to give something back and to help others achieve their goals.
