“Ramadan has come to you: a month of blessing in which Allah (SWT) covers you with blessings, sends down mercy, decreases sins, and answers prayers. In [this month], Allah looks at your competition in good deeds, and boasts about you to His angels. So show Allah utmost goodness from your souls.”
– Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as narrated by Tabarani
In 2025, Ramadan is expected to begin on the evening of Friday, February 28 and end on Sunday, March 30. For millions of Muslims around the world, this blessed month is a time of reflection, reverence, fasting, prayer, patience, and charity. For IRUSA, Ramadan is the month that defines us.
Honoring the traditions of this blessed month unfortunately turns into hardships for too many families in need. That is why your donations are so powerful. Not only do you fulfill the charitable obligations Allah (SWT) has set for us, but you also help relieve at least a little of the burden that a struggling family faces.
Food aid is the largest sector of IRUSA’s humanitarian aid, and our worldwide distribution during the month of Ramadan plays a huge role. Packed with food important to the local diet as well as essential nutrients and vitamins, our Ramadan food boxes help provide food to vulnerable families across the globe. This year, with your support, we’re working to provide food boxes to over 1,000,000 people!
For $125, you can help alleviate the suffering of our brothers and sisters around the world with 30-days worth of essential food items.
What’s in a food box?
Provisions differ from country to country. Many include rice, wheat, lentils, oil, sugar, canned fish or meat, and dates. In some countries, in place of a physical package of food, families are given vouchers to purchase the items they need the most. Connect with us via 1-855-447-1001 or [email protected] to learn more.

“Establish prayer and give zakat, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves—you will find it with Allah. Surely Allah sees what you do.”
—The Holy Qur’an, 2:110
More than just an obligatory wealth tax, zakat (almsgiving), is a core pillar of our faith. When you give through IRUSA, it has the power to end poverty and change the lives of those we serve for generations to come through emergency food aid and shelter, healthcare, sustainable livelihood support, and much more!
