Who are we?

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) translates to Doctors without Borders. MSF is an international medical humanitarian organization working to prevent avoidable deaths, reduce human suffering, and uphold people’s dignity. When medical assistance alone is not enough, we may also provide shelter, water and sanitation, food, or other services. The people we work with, and assist are at the centre of everything we do. Our work is guided by a strict code of medical ethics and by the humanitarian principles of independence, neutrality, and impartiality.

Why choose MSF for your Sadaqah this Ramadan?

During this season of compassion and generosity, we invite you to stand with people whose lives have been upended by crisis. At MSF, our work reflects the core values of Islamic giving: compassion without discrimination, respect for human dignity, and prioritizing those in greatest need.

By directing your Sadaqah to MSF this Ramadan, your support helps deliver vital medical care to communities affected by conflict, displacement, disease, and disaster. Your generosity becomes practical relief. It helps ensure that people facing unimaginable circumstances can still access the treatment and care they urgently need.

THIS RAMADAN, YOU HAVE THE POWER TO ACT IN THE FACE OF CRISIS

CONSIDER CHOOSING MSF FOR YOUR SADAQAH AND STAND WITH PEOPLE IN NEED.

Your Sadaqah in action

Every year, MSF responds to both high-profile emergencies and crises that receive little public attention. Across conflict zones, displacement settings, and disaster-affected communities, our teams work tirelessly to treat the sick and wounded and restore access to essential healthcare. Your Sadaqah helps ensure we can continue to be there for people, wherever and whenever the need is greatest.

Giving without borders

At its core, the purpose of humanitarian action is to ease the suffering of people caught in acute crises. MSF’s commitment to neutrality and impartiality ensures that medical care reaches those who need it most, regardless of their race, religion or background. We operate independently of any political agendas, and do not take sides in armed conflict. Our priority is always the wellbeing of our patients.

A responsible and meaningful choice

Whether offered as part of your regular giving or in honor of a loved one, your support is used carefully and with purpose to deliver essential medical care where it is needed most. Before launching any activity, our medical teams assess conditions on the ground to understand urgent needs. We focus on responding to critical gaps in care, ensuring resources are directed where they can have the greatest impact.

Trust, transparency, and accountability

When you give Sadaqah, trust matters. MSF treats this responsibility with the utmost seriousness. We are committed to transparency in how funds are allocated and to ensuring that donations are used efficiently to deliver medical care where needs are greatest. We prioritize operational efficiency and maintain low administrative and fundraising costs, allowing more of your support to go directly to patient care.

MSF is widely recognized by independent charity evaluators for strong governance, financial transparency, and effective emergency and crisis response across complex humanitarian settings.

To strengthen accountability for Muslim donors, MSF has been advised by leading Sharia advisory firms, to ensure that Sadaqah funds are managed in line with Islamic principles while meeting urgent medical humanitarian needs.

Achievements and Focus

Sudan:

Between January and November 2025, Médecins Sans Frontières delivered over 729,000 outpatient consultations, treated nearly 195,000 emergency cases, admitted more than 57,000 patients, performed 1,836 surgeries, and supported close to 24,000 deliveries across Sudan, alongside extensive antenatal, mental health, and sexual violence services.
In 2026, needs remain acute. Rising malnutrition, high outbreak risks, and overstretched health facilities continue to drive demand for care. Priorities include sustaining emergency and hospital services, preventing disease outbreaks, and expanding nutrition, maternal, and paediatric care. Continued support is critical to prevent further loss of life and maintain access to essential care.

Dagahaley:

Despite increasingly constrained resources, MSF teams have continued to deliver consistent, lifesaving care in a challenging and overcrowded environment. The sustained provision of hospital and primary healthcare services has been critical in addressing malnutrition, maternal and child health needs, emergency cases, and chronic illnesses among refugees and host communities.
Looking ahead to 2026, MSF’s focus remains on reducing illness and mortality, responding to rising malnutrition rates, safeguarding access to essential healthcare, and strengthening emergency preparedness in the face of funding shortfalls and growing needs. Continued support will be vital to ensure that refugees in Dadaab, particularly in Dagahaley, are not left without access to the medical care they depend on.

The majority of funds are dedicated to direct field impact and advocacy, with;

79% of donations going directly toward medical programs and advocacy work.

The remaining 21% is used for fundraising and management, which consists of;

16% reinvested into fundraising to sustain future aid
5% to cover management and general administration costs.

This Ramadan, join hands with us to create a meaningful impact

MSF delivers essential healthcare in the Dadaab refugee complex in Kenya, one of the largest and most overcrowded refugee settings globally. Established in 1991 to host people fleeing the civil war in Somalia, Dadaab now host over 400,000 refugees who remain heavily dependent on humanitarian assistance.

In recent years, reduced international funding for refugee services has placed additional strain on already limited resources. Medical data points to rising malnutrition rates and increasing challenges in accessing healthcare. MSF has repeatedly raised concerns about deteriorating living conditions and the urgent need for sustained humanitarian support, particularly in one of the camps, Dagahaley camp.

Despite increasingly constrained resources, MSF teams keep providing hospital and primary healthcare services. This has been critical in addressing malnutrition, maternal and child health needs, emergency cases, and chronic illnesses among refugees and host communities.

Looking ahead to 2026, MSF’s focus remains on reducing illness and mortality, responding to rising malnutrition rates, safeguarding access to essential healthcare, and strengthening emergency preparedness in the face of funding shortfalls and growing needs. Continued support will be vital to ensure that refugees in Dadaab, particularly in Dagahaley, are not left without access to the medical care they depend on.

We are grateful for your consideration and would welcome the opportunity to share how your Ramadan giving can help bring relief, healing, and hope to communities in Kenya today and around the world.
