Food
From your heart to their tables. Give the gift of food security today with a generous monthly or one-time donation
Hunger Relief
Enough food exists in the world to feed everyone, yet people still suffer from food insecurity. According to the United Nations, wealthy nations waste almost as much food (222 million tons) as all countries in sub-Saharan Africa produce (230 million tons) each year. According to the National Resource Defense Council, each American household throws away $2,200 worth of food each year on average.
The problem isn’t food — it’s poverty, war and access.
As an international humanitarian aid organization, Baitulmaal matches its donors’ compassion with the needs of those struggling with hunger. We believe that every person has the right to nutritious food regardless of their economic or political situation. This belief drives us to provide hunger relief to those in need around the world.
If you share this belief, join us in the fight against hunger with a generous gift today. Your donation of as little as $2 per day will feed a family. You can give one-time or monthly to sustain our hunger relief efforts.
We’re in this together. Without you, some of those struggling with food insecurity would go without food. Every donation matters — especially to those who need it the most.
Let’s work together to provide the life-sustaining help they need.
Below are current food programs you can support today.
