This Ramadan, help me raise money to support women & children find safety & shelter at Nisa Homes


The home in Edmonton opened up in September 2019- since then we have helped a total of 34 individuals in the home itself with nearly 60+ inquiries and are still receiving calls almost every day. 


Our Edmonton community has been the most generous- we know we can count on you when we are in need. 

Our very first client at the home came to us with 2 newborn babies; they were born premature at only 3 weeks old. We had just opened and she needed so much help that we felt overwhelmed at first. This new mom needed everything from clothes to carseats and strollers for her little babies. We put out a call and by the end of the day we had 3 carseats donated to us! The giving spirit in Edmonton is commendable and we know we can count on you when we ask! 


 ~ Home isn't always 

the safest place for everyone ~

With the current COVID19 situation, we have seen an increase in call volume by over 400% through-out all homes across Canada. In Edmonton alone, we receive at least 5 inquiries a week. That's women in our very own city that are suffering and reaching out for help. We are so so needed in this community and we want to continue being there for women in need- we HAVE to be here for them- All of us.

It is our responsibility as a community to help each other out- and what better time than now to show our spirit. So please, help us keep this home running so we can continue to help those in need, those who are most vulnerable. 



What is Nisa Homes?

Nisa Homes is the largest group of transitional homes (long-term shelters) for Immigrant, Refugee and Muslim women who are fleeing domestic abuse, experiencing homelessness or forced resettlement. We provide women with a safe space and services to help them get back on their feet and restart their lives.


Your support will help empower women & their children to regain the confidence, means, and ability to start afresh.

Edmonton Campaign Incentive

Assalamu alaykum,
We pray your Ramadan is going well, SubhanAllah we can't believe we're already a third of the way!

First and foremost, we wanted to thank you for your contribution to our Edmonton campaign! You have helped in securing a safe place and a fresh start for every woman and child that comes through our doors. 

We continue to be blown away by the generosity and support of our local and global community ever since this project started less than a year ago. Together, we raised over $100,000 to open the first Muslim women's shelter in Edmonton, and this year, we are InshAllah aiming to raise even more to continue to provide this essential service amid the crisis and the growing need. We won't lie, it's been challenging since we've had to cancel our annual Iftar and all our hands-on fundraising methods, but we know we have strong supporters like yourself helping us navigate these difficult times. 

The good news is we have been able to add an incentive to those who support our campaign! Thanks to the generosity of our local businesses, anyone that donates $300 or more will be eligible to win a gift certificate (valued at least $20) to any of the following restaurants:

YEG Burger, Chilli Peppers, Turquaz KebabHouse, Al-Salam Pita, Laziza, Turkish Coffee House, Paradiso, Prime Time Donair, AND Tiffins Kitchen !

Encourage your friends and family to donate today and enjoy a night out on us!

Winners will be selected on May 22nd, 2020. Only open to donors in the Edmonton Area (for now at least!). Previous donations of $300 and up will be considered for the draw as well!

Take care,
