About Us
Islamic Zakaat Fund is a registered charitable organization with the initial aim of providing bursaries and scholarships to needy Malawian youth so that they become self-reliant and contribute to the development of their community and the nation
To achieve our goal, we collect funds in form of zakaat or general donations and channels the same to support students to realize their goal. In Malawi, being among the poorest countries, education is too expensive for a needy student to pursue further. We make them realize their goals.
