Charity Week began life as a vision in the year 2000 – a vision that the problems of the world could not be solved by money but through unity by inspiring young people across the world to become active, socially engaged and united upon our shared Islamic and humanitarian values. Charity Week is a volunteer-led effort and operates in 6 countries. The organisation has raised more than £9 million for orphans and needy children worldwide and invested in creating sustainable projects across the globe.
