RAMADAN FUNDRAISING:
Final semester. Final chance. Your #Zakah this #Ramadan can help an African student graduate and escape poverty.
138 Students from Across 14 Countries Are Relying on YOU!
"IOU helped my community to have a better tomorrow."
For the last 7 years, these 138 students have studied tirelessly, balancing families, work, and financial hardship to earn their university degrees through the International Open University (IOU). Supported through IOU’s 1 Million African Scholarships (1MAS) initiative, these students have received scholarships that carried them through every stage of their studies. Now, they are just one semester away from graduating. All they need is a little help to reach the finish line.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When a man dies all his good deeds come to an end except three: Ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), beneficial knowledge and a righteous son who prays for him." (Sunan an-Nasa'i)
The campaign is Zakah-eligible and a beautiful form of Sadaqah Jaariyah. Every contribution helps a student complete their education and continues to benefit others through the knowledge they spread and the lives they uplift.

Coordinator from the #Grand_Mufti_Office_of_Zanzibar – Pemba office Visits Our Centre
Sh. Said Ahmad Mohammed, the Coordinator from the Grand Mufti’s Office of Zanzibar – Pemba office visited our learning center to review ongoing activities and explore future collaboration.
During the tour, he was briefed on our programs, teaching methods, and the progress made in creating a supportive learning environment for students and emphasized the importance of fostering strong partnerships—particularly in areas of moral development, community engagement, and educational improvement.
*Right now, 138 students are one semester away from graduating and I'm fundraising for 2 of them.*
They've studied for seven years through IOU's 1 Million African Scholarships initiative. They've worked jobs. Supported families. Refused to quit when everything said they should.
They're standing at the edge.
Each one needs US$200 to cross the finish line.
When they graduate, they don't just get degrees. They become the teachers who shape the next generation. The leaders who rebuild communities. The parents who change what's possible for their children.
This is how cycles break.
The Prophet ﷺ said: _"When a man dies, all his good deeds come to an end except three: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, and a righteous son who prays for him." (Sunan an-Nasa'i)_
Every degree you fund becomes knowledge that multiplies. Sadaqah jariyah that never stops giving.
138 students. One semester. US$200 each.
Pick one. Graduate them today.
