Qaṣd Foundation is a registered IRS Code Section 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and your donations are tax-deductible.

All administrative and overhead expenses are separately covered by donations to Qaṣd Foundation, meaning 100% of your donated amount is distributed to your selected recipients (not including credit card processing fees).


Food Parcels

Provide essential nourishment to families in need in Jordan. Each parcel includes staples such as rice, oil, lentils, and other basics that help sustain a household for weeks. By donating, you help ensure that vulnerable individuals, including the elderly, disabled, and unemployed, do not go hungry.


Shelter

Housing costs for individuals and families who lack the means to pay rent or secure safe shelter are temporarily covered. This helps prevent homelessness, protects families from unsafe living conditions, and offers stability during times of crisis.


Incarcerated Muslims Support

Under trained Muslim chaplaincy supervision, this initiative distributes foundational Islamic educational materials to incarcerated Muslims in the United States. The program encourages spiritual development, personal dignity, and positive transformation during and after incarceration.


Bedding and Blankets

During cold winters in Jordan, many families lack basic bedding. This initiative distributes blankets and warm bedding to protect families from harsh temperatures, particularly in underserved and struggling areas.


Zawiya

Assists with the operational costs of Zawiya Abul Hasan Al-Shadhili in Amman, Jordan. This support keeps the building and facilities functioning for the educational activities taking place regularly.


Orphans

Provides financial support for orphans whose extended families cannot fully cover their basic living expenses — including food, clothing, school supplies, and other essentials that give children a chance to thrive.


Lote Tree Foundation

Contribution for the construction and maintenance of the Lote Tree Community Center in Toronto, Canada — a school for students to grow both academically and religiously.


Wells and Water Access

Builds wells and water pumps in remote areas where access to clean water is limited. This infrastructure improves health, hygiene, agriculture prospects, and overall quality of life for entire communities.


Space Heaters

Winters in Jordan can be brutally cold. Donated space heaters help families stay warm through the season, reducing the risk of illness and providing comfort where central heating isn’t available or affordable.


Masjid Al Bushra

Helps cover operating and upkeep costs for Masjid Al Bushra in Amman, Jordan — a vital center for worship, Islamic education, and community. Your support sustains a welcoming space for spiritual practice and community programs.


Fans for Summer

During hot Jordanian summers, basic fans make an enormous difference for families living without air conditioning. This project supplies simple cooling solutions to help households stay safe and comfortable.


Medical Care

Covers critical medical expenses for individuals who cannot afford essential treatment — including emergency treatment, specialist visits, and medication. Your donations help to save lives and restore health.


Education

Education is an integral means of advancement. This initiative supports needy students by funding school fees, books, and other educational necessities. This ensures that financial hardship doesn’t block an individual’s access to learning and future opportunities.


Sheep

Facilitates religious sacrifices such as expiation (fidya), sacrificial offering (qurbani/udhiya), or blessing a newborn (aqiqa). The sheep are humanely raised and slaughtered, and the meat is distributed directly to families in need throughout Jordan.


Zakat Distribution

Ensures that your obligatory almsgiving (zakat) is distributed on your behalf according to Islamic principles to eligible recipients in Jordan. This trusted service helps fulfill religious duty with transparency and accountability.


Mosque Construction

Funds the building of mosques in underserved rural communities. Providing more than just a place of worship, these spaces become hubs for education, support, and communal connection.


Qasd Administrative Costs

Covers necessary legal, accounting, and website costs that ensure Qasd foundation operates responsibly and sustainably. Since 100% of other donor funds go directly to selected charitable projects, funds donated to this cause support our operation.
