About us
Established in 1991, Muslim Care was set up by a group of successful businessmen and has since worked to relieve the plight of the needy across the third world, through the promotion of three main objectives: Education, health and self-sufficiency.
Since Muslim Care’s modest beginnings, we have established a number of schools and healthcare facilities among communities in Kenya, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bosnia and Bangladesh. Many of these projects have been carried out in co-operation with other reputable charities with similar aims.
Sectors of Work
- Access to Education
- Our projects are mainly education-focused and are aimed at both adults and children. Our remit includes building and equipping schools and teacher training.
- Healthcare
- Our programmes have included building, equipping and running healthcare centres, sponsoring midwives & birth attendants, sponsoring ambulances to service remote areas and raising money for charitable organisations already working in this sector.
- Water and sanitation facilities
- Our projects include digging wells and building water supply systems.
- Emergency Relief
- We work hand in hand with other charities to provide emergency relief to humanitarian disasters. We also raise funds for long-term development in these areas.
- Mentoring and Befriending
- We have launched local initiatives, working with and befriending young Muslims in London, who fall in the ‘at risk’ and ‘socially excluded’ categories. We also work with offenders and ex-offenders, with the support of Prison Chaplains & Imams.
