Description of the organization's activities
Human Concern International (HCI) was established in 1980, registered with the Canadian Revenue Agency as a federally recognized charity in 1983, and is Canada’s first and oldest Muslim charity. HCI began our operations in 1979 in Pakistan, assisting Afghan refugees fleeing the war. Since then, HCI has delivered over $200 million of aid across the globe. Entrenched in all our work is our vision for a world without poverty and injustice.
Since its inception, HCI has provided humanitarian aid and development support to tens of millions of individuals and families around the world as per our mission to save lives and move people from crises to sustainability through emergency response, education, healthcare, livelihoods, water and sanitation, and child sponsorship programs. For HCI, charity starts at home, and we uplift our community in both times of need and celebration.
