Supporting Orphans Through Crypto Donations: A Guide for Zakat and Sadaqah
Imagine a world where a child doesn’t have a safe place to sleep, nourishing food to eat, or the opportunity to learn and grow. This is the unfortunate reality for millions of orphans around the world. As Muslims, we are called upon to care for these vulnerable members of our community, and with the rise of cryptocurrency, a powerful new tool for charitable giving has emerged.
The world, unfortunately, continues to be burdened by conflicts. Wars in countries like Sudan, South Sudan, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Palestine have caused immense suffering for years. These conflicts have resulted in devastating losses of life, leaving a generation of children without parents. The number of orphans in these regions has risen sharply, creating a critical need for comprehensive care and support. Our Islamic charity is committed to providing a lifeline for these vulnerable children, offering them hope and a chance to rebuild their lives.
Our Islamic charity is dedicated to providing comprehensive care for orphans, ensuring their well-being from infancy to adulthood. We believe that every child deserves a chance to thrive, and through your generous donations – including those made with cryptocurrency – we can make a real difference in their lives.

Why Sponsor an Orphan?
The Quran itself emphasizes the importance of caring for orphans. Surah Ash-Sharh (Chapter 94) reminds us:
“Have We not opened for you your chest [and relieved you of your burden], and removed from you your burden which weighed down your back And We have raised high for you your renown?” (Quran 94:1-3).
These verses refer to the Prophet’s childhood and orphanhood and the hardships of his life. Islamic scholars interpret these verses to refer to the burdens carried by orphans, and the reward received for caring for them. Sponsoring an orphan is a beautiful way to fulfill the pillars of Islam, particularly the obligations of Zakat and Sadaqah. Your contributions can provide essential needs like food, clothing, and healthcare, while also investing in their education and future.
How We Care for Orphans: A Holistic Approach
Our approach to orphan care goes beyond basic needs. We understand that every child is unique, with individual needs and aspirations. Here’s how we categorize and support orphans at different stages of their lives:
Under 7 Years Old (Including Infants):
- Basic Needs: This age group requires a safe and nurturing environment with access to nutritious meals, proper hygiene, and regular medical checkups. We provide loving caretakers, age-appropriate toys, and educational stimulation to support their early development.
- Our Actions: We establish dedicated care centers with qualified staff to ensure a healthy and loving environment for these young children.
The needs of orphans under the age of 7 can be much more complicated than these, which you can read specifically in this article.
Between 7 and 15 Years Old:
- Basic Needs: During this crucial stage, orphans require a strong foundation in education. We focus on providing access to quality schooling, ensuring they receive a well-rounded education that prepares them for the future. Additionally, they may require emotional support and guidance as they navigate adolescence.
- Our Actions: We collaborate with local schools and provide educational resources like books and stationery. We also organize mentorship programs to offer emotional support and guidance.
Over 15 Years Old:
- Basic Needs: As orphans enter young adulthood, their needs shift towards skills development and career opportunities. Many orphans over 15 lack proper education and haven’t had the chance to discover their talents.
- Our Actions: We organize skill-building workshops to equip them with vocational training in fields they’re passionate about. We also help them find jobs or establish their own small businesses. For those who wish to pursue higher education, we offer financial support for university applications.
