About
Ramadan Is Also Being Tested in Sudan.
As families around the world prepare dates and water for Iftar,many families in Sudan are waiting for something far more basic:
Food.
Conflict and displacement have pushed millions into crisis.Entire communities are fasting while already facing severe food insecurity.
For many, Iftar is not a table.
It is a question mark.
🍲 What We're Doing
This Ramadan, we are providing hot Iftar meals in Sudan to families who would otherwise break their fast with nothing.
Warm meals.Freshly prepared.Served with dignity.
Meals that restore strength after a long day of fasting.Meals that remind families they are not forgotten.
🌍 The Crisis Is Ongoing
Sudan is facing one of the largest displacement crises in the world.
Millions have been forced from their homes.Food systems are disrupted.Basic resources are scarce.
And yet, Ramadan continues.
They fast.
They pray.
They wait.

Sudan
What Is Happening
War has emptied whole neighborhoods in Sudan. Families who had a home in the morning are sleeping somewhere else by the evening, and the markets that used to feed them are closed, looted, or priced out of reach.
What UMMA Is Doing
We work with local kitchens and volunteers who are already inside these communities. Together we cook and hand out hot meals, and we go back to the same places so families can count on it. Your donation buys the ingredients, the fuel, and the transport.
Common Questions
Is my donation secure?
Card details go to Stripe and never reach our servers. We see the amount, the campaign and the receipt address, nothing else.
Are my donations tax deductible?
Yes, to the extent allowed by law. You receive a receipt for every donation, and all of them are in My Donations, in the UMMA app or your dashboard on the web.
Can I give my Zakat to UMMA?
Yes, and only to campaigns marked Zakat eligible. Zakat is restricted to the categories in Surah At Tawbah (9:60), so UMMA will not let it be applied anywhere else. If no eligible campaign is open, we say so rather than route it elsewhere.
How do you decide where donations go?
Donations go to the campaign you choose, and that campaign shows its own progress. If you donate without choosing one, funds go where the need is greatest at that moment.
Can I cancel a recurring donation?
Yes, at any time, in My Donations in the UMMA app or on the web. No email and no phone call. Gave without an account? The link in your receipt email cancels it.
Something went wrong with my donation. Who do I tell?
Email hello@ummafoundation.org with the receipt number and a person replies. Refunds follow the refund policy on this site.
What happens if this campaign does not reach its goal?
The work carries on with what was raised. Donations are not held back waiting for a total and they are not moved to another campaign: they go to this one, and the progress bar shows exactly where it stands.
What happens if it raises more than its goal?
It keeps accepting donations and the extra goes to the same work. A goal is what we planned for, not a cap on the need, and a campaign that has passed its goal is still the campaign you chose.
