Support Muslim Women and Children through Sakeenah Canada (Shelters, Foster Care, Public Education)
Every night, thousands of women and children in Canada face homelessness, poverty, and trauma.
Sakeenah Canada is on a mission to change that
Women's Shelters
Our homes are safe spaces across the country for women and children, where they are provided refuge, nutritious meals and essential items. Residents in our homes receive holistic support to help them recover and develop strength, while learning skills that move them towards independence and success. We operate 8 homes across Canada, St. Johns, Montreal, Ottawa, Brampton, Toronto, London, Windsor, Winnipeg, Regina.
The People's Market
The People’s Market in Mississauga, Ontario is a program that provides a grocery store experience to those in need and allows them to get the food and essentials that their family needs, with dignity. Along with our food delivery service for those who cannot be physically mobile, our food program closes the gap for clients to get the nutrition they need for themselves and their families.
Foster Care
Our Foster Care Program will help connect Muslim children in foster care to Muslim families. We are the first licensed Muslim foster care agency in North America, and our goal is to provide culturally and religiously sensitive care in a safe and loving home environment to children who are currently in the foster care system.
100% of your Zakat goes to women, children, and families in our own communities. We believe that every penny of Zakat received should go to Zakat-eligible recipients.
