Sri Lanka
To build a compassionate and empowered society founded on human dignity, self-reliance, and strong social and cultural values. Since 2013, ALKUF has stood with the most vulnerable communities of Sri Lanka building wells, feeding the fasting, clothing orphans and restoring livelihoods.
What We Do
Each programme is a building block for stronger, more dignified communities across Sri Lanka.
How It Works
Choose a cause, Zakat, Sadaqah, a water well or an orphan, and give securely online or by bank transfer.
Our local volunteers identify the most deserving families and deliver your aid directly, hand to hand.
We document every project with photos and reports, and issue a receipt, so your trust is honoured.

“Whoever relieves a believer’s distress, Allah will relieve his distress on the Day of Resurrection.”
Hadith: Sahih Muslim
Voices from the Ground
The new well changed everything for our village. Our children no longer walk miles for clean water. May Allah reward everyone who gave.
After I lost my old boat, my family had no income. ALKUF gave me a new boat and my dignity back. I can feed my children again.
Every Ramadan the iftar programme brings our whole community together. The Foundation works with sincerity and total transparency.
