Emergency Hot Meals for Families in Crisis

Every day, millions of our brothers and sisters around the world go to bed hungry.

‍

From Palestine to Pakistan, Lebanon to Burkina Faso, families are struggling to find their next meal because conflict, displacement, and poverty have stripped them of everything.
‍

It’s an emergency, and the need for food is dire. Food is needed before shelter, before clothing, and before medical supplies. Without food, the rest of the support that we provide as an ummah becomes useless, as food is necessary for survival.
‍

In war-torn areas and refugee camps, parents skip meals so their children can eat. Widows wait in line under the scorching sun for a plate of food. Orphans scrape the already empty cooking pots that we provide just for a morsel of food. There simply isn’t enough at the moment.
‍

At Muslims Around The World (MATW), we believe no one should face hunger alone.
‍

That’s why we’ve launched the MATW Meals – Emergency Relief Campaign to deliver freshly prepared, nutritious meals to those who need them most.

Where We’re Delivering Hope

With your help, we’ve provided 389,826+ meals already to the following countries:
‍

‍Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Togo, and Burkina Faso.
‍

In each region, we provide meals that are nutrient-packed, enabling us to make the biggest impact on people's lives. Our goal is to reach 1 million meals this year with your support!

‍

Who We Serve

Our mission focuses on feeding:

‍👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Displaced families: Forced from their homes by war, disaster, or poverty, countless families now live in temporary shelters or refugee camps. Your donation delivers fresh meals and clean water to those who have lost everything, reminding them that hope still exists through the hands of the Ummah.
‍

👩‍👦 Widows and orphans: Many women have lost their husbands, and countless children have lost their fathers to war, poverty, or displacement. With no one left to provide, widows and orphans are often the first to go hungry, relying on the mercy of Allah and the compassion of the Ummah to survive.
‍

‍👨‍👧‍👦 Refugees: Driven from their homes by war and hardship, millions of refugees struggle each day to find safety, food, and shelter. Your support brings them relief and dignity, providing warm meals, clean water, and a reminder that the Ummah has not forgotten them.
‍

🧓 The elderly and vulnerable: Our elders are among the most vulnerable in times of crisis. Many live alone, without access to food, care, or support. Your generosity ensures they are not forgotten, providing them with hot meals, comfort, and dignity in their final years.
‍

‍The meal you sponsor may be the only one they eat today.

Feeding Others: A Prophetic Act

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “The best of you are those who feed others.” -(Musnad Ahmad 23408)
