“All the great faith traditions require and encourage giving. Giving is the essence of living. It touches everything we do that is truly meaningful. I believe we are all here to make a difference—otherwise what is the purpose of living? As we live and experience the world during our time here, our contributions hopefully leave the world a better place.”

FAITH’s approach of exclusively supporting communities locally reaches poor and indigent population within the United States. Since its establishment, FAITH has progressed from mostly offering immediate help and focus on severing the roots of poverty, utilizing Zakat and Sadaqa donations to develop long-term, sustainable solutions. We serve to empower people to be self-sufficient, to build strong families and to be a force of good in our community.
