The Zakat Local platform aims to streamline the Zakat & Sadaqa collection process by creating a seamless and convenient experience for Muslims. Through our platform, Muslims can easily set up recurring contributions to their Masjid or Organization of choice, ensuring a consistent flow of donations. By automating the process, we remove the challenges of manually collecting donations, thereby reducing friction and simplifying the process for users.
We also prioritize empowerment by allowing users to designate their local masjid as their main community of focus. This creates a stronger sense of connection and allows users to give back to causes that are close to home. Our user-friendly platform ensures that anyone can contribute to charity, regardless of their experience with online donation systems, bringing people together to create continuous positive impacts.
100% of Zakat collected is distributed as immediately possible through the platform to families in our cue. Each family has been assessed the immediacy of their need and are rewarded their zakat accordingly.
Sadaqa is distributed as per the donors wishes in the category that they have specified. Housing, food, education or for masjid or organizational project purposes. Zakat is ineligible to distribute to masajids and organizations, only individuals.
Through our platform funds can be discretely given directly to the family.
Only Muslims pay Zakat and we make every effort to channel the Zakat they pay back towards those businesses so that they may, by the will of Allah, make more money to increase their Zakat contribution.
By distributing their Zakat to those who need it we build the bridge of trust between the businesses and the community. As contributions flow from the business to the people and back to the business the relationship is strengthened within the community as a whole.
We help businesses by reducing their advertisment costs by providing an audience that directly benefits from their message and service.
We collect & analyze community data so that we can find where the community is losing money. We survey both businesses and individuals to find where they cannot use a Muslim business to fulfill their need.
Through analytics we identify holes in the community that need to be plugged. When those holes are substantial and it is prudent to close the gap we move to create the necessary sustainable business to provide the lacking product or service that is needed.
We also create a network of job upleveling. By sourcing Muslim and non/Muslim business to promote members of our community into more profitable positions.
With a singular goal of increasing Zakat flowing throughout the community.
We create multiple avenues of donation by creating paths of giving that are in line with peoples everyday lives. From online platforms of job posting to our online store and exploring avenues of brokering profit-sharing for local and emerging businesses. We generate avenues of capital and new ways of donating. We build marketplaces and allowing communities to grow stronger naturally by trading amongst each other. We open the paths of sadaqa jariyah allowing people to acquire the items that they need for daily life in a dignified fashion without resulting to paths of interest (Riba).
