8,500 children die from malnutrition every single day.

Around the world, 1 in 10 newborns is at risk of dying. No milk. No medicine. Just helpless infants, waiting for mercy to reach them.

But in the days Allah made most beloved for giving, you can respond.

Humaniti is deploying Emergency RUTF—a nutrient-rich, UNICEF-approved paste proven to rapidly restore weight, health, and strength in malnourished babies and mothers. In Pakistan, our teams are on the ground reaching the most vulnerable with critical doses—before their condition becomes irreversible.

Your Sadaqah can mean the difference between recovery and loss.
A single packet can stabilize a child. A full cycle can restore them.

Last year, Humaniti expanded to 64 clinics—reaching nearly 100,000 malnourished children with critical support. In 2023, thanks to you, 25,000 children and mothers received emergency RUTF—the nutritional lifeline their bodies were silently begging for.

Despite siege zones, collapsing infrastructure, and blocked borders, we’re breaking through. And with your charity, we can keep reaching the children no one else can.

You can help a child like Amina today—a baby who arrived limp, frail, and fading. After just one treatment cycle of emergency RUTF, she was strong enough to smile again.

“Whoever saves a life, it is as if he has saved all of humanity.”
— Qur’an (5:32)

Thousands of babies lie weak in their mother’s arms—not knowing if they’ll survive until sunset. Let your charity be what fills that silence with strength.

They Won’t Die All at Once. Malnutrition Will Shut Their Bodies Down—One Organ at a Time.

This is what untreated malnutrition does to a child:

🩸 Stage 1: The Body Feeds on Itself
With no nutrients, the body begins breaking down muscle, fat—and eventually vital tissue. Children stop moving. Their energy disappears.

💔 Stage 2: The Heart Weakens
Even the heart begins to shrink. Each beat is slower, fainter, more fragile.

🦠 Stage 3: The Immune System Fails
A small fever turns deadly. A cough becomes dangerous. Their body can no longer fight back.

⚠️ Stage 4: Organ Shutdown
Without intervention, one by one, their organs fail. And a child who could have been saved, is lost.

But there’s still time. And so is your chance to stop this. Emergency RUTF can reverse this cycle, rebuild strength, and restore life before it’s too late.

Malnutrition Doesn’t Have to End in Death—And You Can Be the Reason It Doesn’t.

Amina was two years old, but her body told another story. She weighed less than a newborn. Her ribs were visible, her skin paper-thin. She didn’t cry—she didn’t have the strength to.

Doctors said she had days left.

Then came emergency RUTF—a single packet, packed with what she needed to live. With just three packets a day, Amina began to recover. Within weeks, her body held life again. And her mother whispered Alhamdulillah through tears.

🌍 Millions of children are still where Amina was—in Gaza, in Pakistan, across East Africa and more. On the brink. But not beyond saving.

You could be the reason a child survives. You can help them begin a new chapter—a life with health, hope, and strength. 

✅ Endorsed by UNICEF, WHO, and the World Food Programme, Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF) is one of the fastest, most effective ways to fight severe malnutrition. It restores energy, immunity, and most of all—hope.

Let your charity in these sacred days give strength to those too weak to lift their heads. This isn’t just aid. This is mercy.

Your Zakat Can Be the Reason a Child Survives

Your one small act of kindness has the power to stop starvation, restore strength, and revive futures.

Your Zakat Can Save a Life Today:
✅ $30 Provide a 12-Week Malnutrition Treatment for 3 Children
✅ $50 Provide Emergency RUTF Treatment for 5 Starving Children
✅ $100 Fully Treat 10 Malnourished Children
✅ $500 Feed 50 Babies for 12 Weeks
✅ $2500 Support an Entire Malnutrition Clinic

Every number above is a child spared from pain. There are thousands of babies who are too weak to cry, too frail to survive. Their bodies are shutting down from severe malnutrition but emergency RUTF can bring them back. You have the power to stop the suffering before it’s too late.

The Prophet ﷺ said: “He is not a believer whose stomach is filled while his neighbor is hungry.”

Let your Zakat do what it was meant to do—relieve hardship, save lives, and bring you closer to Allah.
"Before, my one-year-old son was weak and always sick. But after a few weeks of receiving proper nutrition, he’s now happy and active."– A Mother in Pakistan

How is my Zakat money spent? Who is it spent on?

The Zakat donations that we receive from our donors are distributed among Zakat eligible patients for whichever treatment they are receiving from Indus Health Network facilities.

What are your guidelines for distributing Zakat Donations?

The Indus Hospital provides quality care without any discrimination, free of cost through the support of your Zakat and Donations.

With the help of reputable Sharia Scholars, The Indus Hospital (TIH) has developed a criterion to ascertain if Zakat is applicable to a certain individual. Whenever a patient visits the Indus Hospital, he/she goes through the assessment with TIH’s welfare officer to determine if the patient is eligible for Zakat or not.

Once the recipient of Zakat is identified, their MR number is marked to signify that the patient’s treatment should be supported from Zakat account. The patient is requested to sign a declaration granting the Indus Hospital permission to collect Zakat on their behalf and to use that Zakat to sponsor the treatment of his/her and/or other patients or hospital requirements. Once the patient is discharged, hospital generates an internal bill and sends it to the Zakat Committee for settlement.
