100% of Zakat collected goes to those in need within 72 hours!

Our intention is to help our community by preventing the funds Allah gave us from leaving.

We prioritize those who need help most (the Fuqura) and distribute their funds immediately upon approval.

We identify the Miskeen and leverage our resources to help them best. We educate the community to support local Muslim businesses so the money stays in the community where they pay their Zakat.

We find where the Ummah is losing its money and Create businesses and partnerships to stop that loss.

This is how Zakat is supposed to work, the Baraka never leaves the Ummah!

Have your business Pledge To Give Zakat locally Now!

The Ummah needs you!
The Ummah Needs you!

Make a change in someones life today!

In our communities often the person most in need is often the one you least expect. They often stand right next to you in prayer and greet you with a beautiful greeting and never complain. However, many times this masks the need right in front of us. This leads to a false belief that Muslims in our communities are not in true need of assistance. This could not be further from the truth. We have many in our communities who are desperately struggling to make ends meet and several on the verge of losing most of what little they have. Your contribution helps them to make it to the end of the month and gives them hope of a brighter day.

How Zakat Local works

Zakat Collection

We systemize Zakat collection in a local area by forming a geocentric circle around a community.

We first collect Zakat and Sadaqa around the local community Masjid, zipcode, then city, region, state, then country.

We allow the community to remain in full charge of funds individuals allocate to them through direct donation or activity contributions. Allowing local masjids the ability to expand their collection systems.

Anyone can choose to focus their donations in whatever circle they choose.

Zakat Distribution

We generate a list of those who have requested or qualify for Zakat from their community.

We distribute funds to those whom the community has vetted. If they do not belong to a community we will vet their request and distrubute funds from the closest geographic area. When that has been exhausted we will expand our search to larger areas until the need is met.

No collected Zakat is held for more than 30 days from the point of receipt. Our goal is to distribute it immediately from the moment we recieve it to those in need.

Business Promotion

We work with those businesses who have pledged to pay their Zakat Locally. We promote those businesses by letting the local population know who they are.

By promoting those who are paying their Zakat locally we are increasing the levels of Zakat collected and thereby increasing the standard of living for the local community. As the community creates more Zakat payers it becomes stronger releasing the burden on the wealthy Muslims within the community.

This allows everyone to become wealthier, which increases Zakat, which builds a stronger community.

Business Creation

When we find an area where the community as a whole is losing money, we identify individuals within the local community that are primed to create a business that will fill that loss gap. We then go to work to raise awareness of the business opening.

Through microlending and profit-sharing we build a new community based business to fill the need of recouping the communities lossed funds.

We then encourage the community to invest in their mutual need to build a business that will make the whole community stronger.

Why Choose Us

Central collection

Collection and distrubution of Zakat and Sadaqa in one place leads to an efficient means of Zakat distribution within the community as a whole.

It guards against abuse of the zakat system across a localized region by providing a central vetting point across a regional area.

Providing a faster payout of funds by aggregating funds from across communities. Our system doesn't replace the current community managers or in-place systems of distribution.

Market Insights

By collecting a large data set generated across the region we gain intricate knowledge of developing needs of the community.

This allows for critical market analysis for the developing and creating sustainable business opportunities for the community.

Generating a path for community investments that will facilitate communities to move swiftly to take advantage of the opportunities to grow their income base per member.

Specific Alerts

The collection of data allows for timely alerts to the growing needs of the community allowing for more robust planning.

It allows for all community members the ability to know, in numbers, what is needed in either material or labor means.

It keeps the community and greater community at large aware of which businesses have taken the pledge to support their community with zakat and when they've fulfilled their pledge.

This is an effort to create greater trust between the zakat payers and recipients.

Unbiased support

Our system is designed to provide swift assistance to those in need, whoever they may be. We have created an unbiased system by reducing distribution and other forms of support down to the qualifying factor of the recipient being Muslim.

Our vetting process provides both organizations and individuals from qualifying recipients.

We believe in making the process as simple and efficient as possible, so that those who require assistance can get it quickly without any complications.

Indeed the muslims will be successful!
