Our mission exemplifying our Islamic values, we will mobilise resources, build partnerships, and develop local capacity, in order to:

Enable communities to mitigate the effect of disasters, prepare for their occurrence and respond by providing relief, protection and recovery.
Promote integrated development and environmental custodianship with a focus on sustainable livelihoods.
Support the marginalised and vulnerable to voice their needs and address root causes of poverty

Islamic Relief works with communities to strengthen their resilience to calamities, and we provide vital emergency aid when disasters occur.

We help the impoverished access basic services, including education, water and sanitation, as well as healthcare. We provide lasting routes out of poverty through our sustainable development schemes. Our integrated approach to progress is transforming communities worldwide.

We tackle the root causes of poverty and make sure that the world’s most vulnerable people have real influence in both our programs and advocacy.

In 2010, Islamic Relief Australia became an independent member of a global family of collaborating relief organisations that share a common vision, mission and family identity, connected through the use of the “Islamic Relief” name. Islamic Relief Australia operates three regional offices in Australia: in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland. Our headquarters are located in Auburn, New South Wales.

These Islamic Relief Australia offices have been serving to educate, inform, and raise awareness about our various relief and development projects since inception. Additionally, Islamic Relief Australia holds seminars, banquets, concerts, and other public awareness programs across the country to help fund Local and international projects.

We are proud of Islamic Relief Australia achievement’s in serving the less fortunate in the past 5 years and we look forward to continue progressing towards fulfilling our mission and delivering on our vision for the future.

We’d ♡ for you to join us today on our journey to creating a better world.
