In the neighborhoods of Jonoob-e Shahr (Southern Tehran), many families already living in poverty are now facing even harsher conditions. We’re mobilizing emergency relief packages to provide essential supplies, and we need your help to provide urgent humanitarian aid.
We are now raising funds to prepare and deliver emergency relief packages to 500 families in the first phase of our response. Just $90 can support a family of 4–5 with basic necessities for an entire month. Thanks to long-established, legal humanitarian channels and the dedication of our trusted local partner/sister NGO, Nikgaman Jamshid Charity, we are ready to deliver aid quickly, safely, and directly to those most in need. This critical poverty alleviation effort relies on your support.
We’ve secured dependable sources for essential goods and established efficient logistics to ensure smooth and effective distribution. You can be their lifeline, every donation, relief, and hope.
Over the past week, we’ve been in close contact with our team on the ground at Nikgaman Jamshid Charity to assess the urgent humanitarian needs in Southern Tehran. We apologize for the delay in reaching out — our full attention has been on understanding the situation and planning an effective response.
Our focus is clear: to support the most vulnerable, especially families and children whose already difficult lives have now been pushed into a deeper crisis. Many of these families rely on daily wages to support their livelihoods. But with businesses shuttered, their means of income have all but disappeared.
Your contribution helps us provide emergency relief supplies.
