Giving that goes on
Sadaqah Jariyah means giving that goes on doing good once the gift is made, like a water well a village draws from every day. You can build one of your own or help fund one with others, and we hope Allah accepts it and lets its good continue.
You're here because you want your giving to keep doing good. So do we. Tell us what you'd like to build and who it's for, and we'll help you find the place it can do the most good. May Allah accept it from you.
It's voluntary giving that keeps doing good after it's given, for as long as people benefit from what it built. We hope Allah accepts it and lets that benefit continue, but we never put a number of years on it or promise what reward it brings.
A water well that a community drinks from, or a masjid where people keep coming to pray. A home for a family, or a classroom where children learn, can be Sadaqah Jariyah too. Whichever you build, you'll get updates as it's made, then a report with photographs and its location once it's finished. About a year on, our partners tell us how it's being used, and we pass that on to you.
Where you could start
You can build any of these on your own, or fund one share of a named project alongside other givers; each project's page shows the price.
We've already built a hand pump at Mika in Uganda.
Build your own water wellA masjid sized for its congregation.
Build your own masjidA home for a family without one.
Build a home for a familyWhen a person dies, his deeds come to an end except three: ongoing charity, knowledge that benefits, or a righteous child who prays for him.
You can put someone's name on a project too. A whole project puts it on the plaque at the site.
See how dedications workWe'll call you within one working day. For a whole project, we start with a free conversation and some initial research. When you're happy, a deposit confirms the price, the location and the detailed planning. 30% of the total starts the build, and we agree how you pay the rest, in full or in stages. Your deposit can be returned up until the work starts. Shares are paid at checkout and can be refunded on request until work on their project starts, after which they're committed to the project, though we'll still refund a genuine mistake. If the project can't go ahead, we'll tell you about moving your share to a similar project.
