Zakat Foundation of America

We help Muslims carry out their Zakat duties easily and correctly and deliver these obligatory alms – and voluntary sadaqah charity from all caring people – diligently, effectually, and with dignity to the poor, the stricken, the war-ravaged, and the bereaved of all the world. We collect Zakat payments and voluntary Sadaqah (charity) and distribute it to the divinely decreed eight categories of its direly needful and deserving recipients: The poor, hungry and thirsty The sick, the wounded, the plague-struck; expecting and postpartum mothers, and newborns The refugee, internally displaced, and the forced migrant The besieged, the subjugated, the victims of violence, and the persecuted The debt-ridden, and children, women, and men in need of inclusive, quality education and empowering vocational training The inclined for advocacy of peace, equanimity, and the elimination of violence Those striving to establish human rights, sustainable communities, food resilience, clean water and sanitation, and responsible consumption and production Those who work to make this possible.
