Most people want to give to healthcare causes. But most people also want to know what their money actually does.
Not in vague terms. Not in broad mission statements. In real, specific, human terms. What happens, physically and concretely, when you donate £10 to a healthcare appeal? Who receives it? What does it buy? Whose life does it change?
A £10 healthcare donation can provide essential medicines for up to 10 patients, fund a child’s vaccination, or supply oral rehydration kits to prevent dehydration deaths. A £20 donation can cover a full medical consultation and treatment course for a family. A £50 donation can fund a mobile medical clinic visit to a displacement camp, supplying antibiotics, wound dressings, and maternal health care. Through Al Qulub Trust’s 100% Donation Policy, every penny reaches the field.
Because giving with clarity is not just more satisfying, it is more Islamic. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Give charity without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.” (Sunan al-Tirmidhi, 589). And you give more confidently when you know exactly what that charity does.
The World Health Organisation estimates that at least half of the world’s population still lacks access to essential health services. Millions more are forced into extreme poverty due to healthcare expenses. For countless individuals across the globe, simple ailments become life-threatening due to a lack of medical resources. Others suffer from preventable diseases due to inadequate healthcare infrastructure.
A child in Gaza dies from an infected wound because no antibiotics are available. A mother in Yemen gives birth without a midwife, without sterile equipment, without pain relief. These are not edge cases. They are daily realities for millions of people in the communities Al Qulub Trust serves.
Ten pounds may feel like a small amount in the UK, but when combined with other donations and used through humanitarian supply networks, it can contribute towards essential healthcare for people affected by conflict, displacement and poverty.
Under Al-Qulub Trust’s 100% Donation Policy, donations are directed towards charitable projects, including healthcare programmes, essential medicines, vaccination initiatives and medical support. The precise items and number of people supported will vary according to local needs, supplier prices, availability and delivery costs.
A £10 donation can contribute towards essential medicines prescribed by qualified healthcare professionals. These may include antibiotics for diagnosed bacterial infections, pain relief, fever treatments and other urgently required medicines.
The type and quantity of medicine supplied depend on the patient’s condition, clinical guidance and local availability. Antibiotics are only appropriate when a trained healthcare professional determines that they are needed.
Your donation can help provide oral rehydration salts and related supplies for children and families experiencing diarrhoea-related dehydration.
ORS replaces the fluids and electrolytes lost during illness and is recognised by the World Health Organization as a simple and effective treatment for most cases of dehydration caused by diarrhoea.
A £10 donation can also contribute towards vaccination programmes protecting children from diseases such as measles, polio, typhoid and hepatitis.
Vaccination support may cover vaccine doses, syringes, safety boxes, refrigeration, transportation and administration by trained healthcare workers. Because these costs differ between countries and campaigns, the exact number of children supported may vary.
In Gaza, shrapnel injuries, burns and wound infections have created an urgent need for sterile wound-care supplies. Donations can help provide essential items such as sterile gauze, bandages, dressings and antiseptic supplies to hospitals and medical teams.
A £20 healthcare donation can make a meaningful contribution towards essential patient care in communities affected by poverty, conflict and displacement.
Depending on the location, medical need and cost of local supplies, your donation could help provide a clinical consultation, basic medical assessment, prescribed treatment or essential medicines. It may also be combined with other donations to support patients requiring more extensive care.
Healthcare costs vary between countries and programmes, but every contribution helps Al-Qulub Trust deliver essential medical assistance where it is needed most.
A £50 donation can contribute towards wider healthcare services for vulnerable families and communities.
Through its Healthcare Appeal, Al-Qulub Trust supports the operation of health clinics, vaccination initiatives, essential medicines and responses to medical emergencies in crisis-affected areas.
Your donation may help cover medicines, medical supplies, transport, clinic equipment or other costs involved in bringing healthcare closer to displaced and underserved families. The exact support provided will depend on current needs, local prices and the programme being funded.
Eligible UK taxpayers can make their healthcare donation go further at no additional cost through Gift Aid.
When you complete a Gift Aid declaration, Al-Qulub Trust can claim an additional 25p for every £1 donated. This means an eligible £50 donation could provide £62.50 in total funding.
That additional £12.50 can help Al-Qulub Trust extend its charitable work and support more people. To qualify, you must have paid enough UK Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on your donations during that tax year.
Now you know exactly what your money does. The question is simply whether you will give it. £10 protects a child from disease. £20 gives a family complete medical care. £50 brings a mobile clinic to a displacement camp.
Every donation goes entirely to the field through Al Qulub Trust’s 100% Donation Policy. Every gift is Gift Aid-eligible for UK taxpayers. Every pound is tracked, reported, and accounted for.
