Stichting Islamic Relief Nederland
A group of students with a heart that beats for others joined forces in 1992 to answer cries for help from those in need worldwide. They wanted to improve the world from their small attic room in Amsterdam. Islamic Relief Netherlands was created based on this willpower. The first Orphan Project quickly became a reality and three decades later it is still the most successful project of Islamic Relief Netherlands. In 30 years, Islamic Relief Netherlands has grown into one of the largest Islamic humanitarian aid organizations in the world. A foundation that has projects running in more than 29 countries. A foundation that has undergone enormous development. As we look to the future, we are always learning, developing and improving, to improve the living conditions of most of the poorest and neediest people.
