In 2024, the KnowIslam Project embarked on a series of impactful initiatives to provide financial and material support to individuals and communities in need. This report summarizes the achievements and contributions of the project throughout the year. We raised over Ten Million Naira with our sole partner Stichting Meehelpen and Lawal Foundation accounting for about 15% of the funds.
In 2025, we aim to transition away from public fundraisers and rely on the generous support of dedicated members. We envision a sustainable model where voluntary recurring Zakat and Sadaqah contributions directly support our projects. It is worthy of note the KnowIslam project fully funded its activities like web hosting, general site maintenance and ads. All funds were disbursed to the needy. Join our Whatsapp Support Group:
