Many countries regularly face emergencies that require rapid humanitarian assistance.
These emergencies include natural disasters such as earthquakes, cyclones, droughts and floods, and man-made disasters – civil unrest, armed conflict, environmental and technological disasters. Those disasters leave behind populations that cannot provide themselves with their daily basic needs. Ummah Foundation has closely been involved in this exercise and is at the forefront of creating awareness so that the people affected get the needed help in time.
Food and Relief
It is during such demanding moments that, Ummah Foundation in collaboration with other Muslim funding Organisations both in Kenya and abroad struggles with these challenges of food relief and water supply programs in the Northern Region but the situation still remains the same year after year. Previously we have worked with Ummah Welfare Organisation of UK, GHRF, Caravan of mercy, Central Jamia Southall and other well-wishers to distribute food and clothes to affected villages in Isiolo, Marsabit, Wajir, Garissa and Mandera counties.
