Be a helper to someone near you.
Al-Ansaar Foundation Canada works with trusted charities around the world to bring help to the Ummah wherever it’s needed most. Your donation goes straight to that work.
Ansaar means “the helpers.” It was the name given to the people of Madinah who opened their homes and shared what they had with those who arrived with nothing.
