THE WORLD'S WORST HUNGER CRISIS

Refugees in East Africa and Yemen are enduring unimaginable suffering, with the Sudan civil war pushing millions into displacement and despair.

But there is hope: you. Your Zakat, Sadaqah, Fidya and Kaffaarah can save lives.

"Whoever fulfilled the needs of his brother, Allah will fulfil his needs; whoever brought his brother out of a discomfort, Allah will bring him out of the discomforts of the Day of Resurrection." 

Hadith (Bukhari 2442)

Ethar Relief is in Sudan right now providing food, water and essential aid to the most vulnerable. Our teams are also in Djibouti, Yemen and Ethiopia to bring hope to those who are completely forgotten, including Eritrean refugees.

This Ramadan, be the difference between life and death for countless families.


"As a mother, it was too much to provide enough food for the family and care for them by myself. Ethar is helping us with food packs and this has removed a huge burden from us.” -

 Zainab, mother and carer, resident of Kilo 26 Refugee Camp, East Sudan.

"Twenty-five million Sudanese, more than half the country,

need help now."

UN humanitarian chief
