Muslim Futures
Working towards a better future
About the Charity
Muslim Futures is a UK-based international relief and development charity working to support the needy and vulnerable, and promoting sustainable, economic, and social development by working with local communities, regardless of race, religion, gender, or background.
We organise and deliver humanitarian and aid activities to our beneficiaries, wherever they may be.
We aim to create and develop initiatives that make sense for the wider community - not just better solutions, but those that are more sustainable, consistent and long-term.
We support individuals, communities and grass-roots organisations.
We work to develop and provide better opportunities and experiences for all.
We pride ourselves on our personal touch each and every day.
Established in 2010, our aim is to alleviate poverty and hardship, by improving access to essential life-critical services, personal development, and self-empowerment.
Based in East London, Muslim Futures is run by a group of diverse professionals, community workers, and passionate parents. We are organised and led by 3 Trustees who all offer their time and resources voluntarily. We undertake a mix of operational projects by working through partner organisations and local project volunteers across countries including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Palestine, Syria, Yemen and the UK. We also work across Africa.
What we do
We strive to ensure that all those suffering poverty and hardship can survive and are empowered to develop and thrive.
Humanitarian & welfare relief
We deliver relief services to those in poverty, suffering immediate hardship, or at risk of harm. Our projects are designed to be bespoke to the need, and we also focus on developing our own ability to link relief and rehabilitation with long-term development.
