Three years strong

Assalam Alaikum,

With the blessing of Allah, this Ramadan we will reach our third year of service to the community. We want to thank you for making National Zakat Foundation a success. We want to present a brief overview on what has been accomplished in the past 3 years.

The recipients of Zakat almost doubled this year and we expect a rise again in the coming year. Without your Zakat contributions we will not be able to meet the rising demand from deserving Zakat recipients across Canada.  We want to leave you with an amazing statement for a reward that is waiting for you inshAllah.

~ Al-Fudhayl ibn Iyaadh once said "What great people are the poor! They carry our provisions to the next life without pay, placing them on the scales in front of Allah!"
