In the world of humanitarian aid, smaller independent NGOs play a crucial role in reaching communities that are often overlooked or need specialist care. Unlike large international organizations, smaller NGOs like Swisscross operate with limited resources, relying heavily on the generosity of individual donors to sustain and expand their vital work to some of the most vulnerable communities.

During the holy month of Ramadan, the importance of giving and generosity is amplified. As we reflect on our blessings and the significance of helping those in need, your donations of zakat and sadaqah can make a life-changing impact for individuals in Iraq and Afghanistan who desperately need access to reconstructive surgery and medical care.

Why Donations Are Essential for Small NGOs Like Swisscross

Swisscross operates independently, ensuring that donations go directly toward delivering medical care to the most vulnerable. Your support enables us to:

  •  Provide life-changing reconstructive surgeries to victims of conflict and trauma.

  •  Reach underserved communities where access to specialized medical care is scarce.

  • Support medical teams working on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan.

  • Ensure sustainable healthcare solutions for those in need.

With every donation, you help us continue our mission of healing and restoring dignity to individuals who have suffered from the devastating effects of war and hardship.

The Impact of Giving During Ramadan

Ramadan is a time of reflection, compassion, and generosity. It is a month where acts of charity hold even greater rewards, and the impact of your giving can truly change lives.

By donating to Swisscross this Ramadan, you are not only fulfilling a pillar of faith but also directly contributing to:

  • Restoring hope to patients who have suffered from severe injuries.

  • Providing essential medical care for those without access to treatment.

  • Empowering communities by supporting sustainable healthcare solutions.

This Ramadan, help make a difference. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us bring healing, relief, and second chances to those who would otherwise go without care.

Give the gift of healing this Ramadan.
Donate today and be a part of someone’s healing journey.

May this month bring you blessings, peace, and countless rewards for your kindness.

Ramadan Mubarak!
