Our Values and Culture
Geo-political instability in the Arab world has led to wide-spread poverty.
On the micro-level, families and individuals are impacted by a failing banking system, high inflation, and an increasingly competitive job market.
A substantial amount of money is donated to these causes, but it often goes to corrupt institutions or failing projects, never making its way into the hands of real people.18
We are an intracultural, Middle East based charity foundation assisting individuals, families, and communities entrenched in poverty and hindered by a fundamental lack of socio-economic infrastructure through direct donations: cash assistance put straight into the hands of the people who need it most.
FAQ
How do we decide to whom to give money?
We distribute donations based on simple and fair criteria, reaching out to families and individuals in villages categorized as extremely poor, according to national surverys and systems such as the progress out of poverty index (PPI) and the multi-dimensional poverty index (MPI).
How much do recipients get?
The amount depends on the type of donation plan that recipient in question has signed up for.
For those receiving a one-time grant, the amount may range from 800$-1000$. However, most beneficiaries are on a recurring grant plan, meaning they receive between 300$-800$ a month. It is important to note that in either grant programs, there are always exceptions to the rule.
How long will the average family/individual receive aid?
That depends entirely on the family/individual at hand. Out of those who benefit from a recurring grant plan, aid may be given for months or even years.

How do they receive cash?
Firstly, our dedicated collection team organizes all contributions regardless of the form (check, wire transfer, crypto, credit card, etc.). Our donation collection team determines to whom the contributions will be sent and how much (depending on the need of the individual case). Lastly, our donation transfer specialists coordinate with the beneficiaries and send them the cash in whatever way they can receive it.
