In loving memory of my mother, Afreen Ahmed, I would like to raise funds to sponsor a kids' room to provide safe shelter at Nisa Homes Calgary.


Imagine for a moment what it would feel like to have everything you know, and love taken away from you. Imagine having to flee from your own home in the middle of the night, with nothing but the clothes on your back, because you fear for your safety and the safety of your children. This is the tragic reality for many victims of domestic violence. 

As Ramadan approaches, my heart aches for the women and children who have nowhere to turn. That's why I'm asking for your help to raise $XXXX to shelter __ women and __ children at Nisa Homes. During a time when the reward for our good deeds and giving are amplified, let's come together as a family and make a difference in the lives of those who need it most. 

Nisa Homes is a not-for-profit charity that provides a safe haven and support services for women and children who are fleeing domestic violence, poverty or seeking asylum. They provide them with safe shelter and a wide range of services catered to their needs.  

 


At Nisa Homes, we envision a flourishing Muslim community in which help is available, shelter is accessible, and healing is possible.  

Nisa Homes was born out of a need to support the most vulnerable and marginalized members of our community. After conducting a feasibility study, we found that culture is vital to immigrant, refugee, and Muslim women. As such, we work hard to provide a place for women to live comfortably and feel safe in a supportive home environment, explore their cultural identity, and directly connect with their community. This helps us ensure their long-term success in restarting their lives and transitioning into independence after trauma or homelessness. This home is a center of empowerment where the vulnerable are given hope, the broken are rebuilt and the helpless are given their dignity.
