East Africa is facing a severe humanitarian emergency due to climate change, prolonged drought, flooding, rising food prices, and internal conflict. In Somalia, decades of civil war, displacement, and weak infrastructure have left communities extremely vulnerable. Furthermore, millions across the Horn of Africa are experiencing chronic hunger, malnutrition, and lack of access to basic services, creating famine-like conditions that leave families requiring urgent help.

When you donate to Somalia, your contribution supports life-saving projects: family food parcels, hot meals, deep water wells and livelihood support such as rickshaws and sewing machines. These projects help address malnutrition, improve health and restore dignity for families affected by hunger & displacement. Your support also allows us to distribute essential aid during Ramadan and Qurbani, allowing families to make the most of these blessed months.

Severe water shortages are driven by erratic rainfall, prolonged drought, and the impact of climate change in the Horn of Africa. Many communities lack access to safe water and sanitation, increasing the spread of disease. Our WASH services focus on providing clean water through deep water wells, improving hygiene, and protecting vulnerable families from waterborne illnesses.

Deep water wells provide sustainable access to clean water, improving health, child education and overall well-being. These wells reduce the burden on women and children, protect livestock, and help communities recover from famine and drought. Water wells also qualify as Sadaqah Jariyah , providing continuous reward.

Millions of children are malnourished and at risk of acute malnutrition, especially in Somalia. Hunger impacts children's education, physical development and access to healthcare. At GRF, our food and water projects help protect children’s health while reducing the long-term effects of hunger and poverty. Additionally, through our Back to School campaign, we distribute uniforms and school kits, giving children the tools they need to show up prepared and ready to learn.

By providing rickshaws and sewing machines, families can earn a stable income, rebuild dignity and reduce dependency on aid. By supporting our livelihood projects, you are helping to strengthen economic resilience and improve access to food, education & healthcare. Beneficiaries can then become the givers, In Shaa Allah, using their skills to support their community.
