Urgent Humanitarian Response

Iraq Appeal

Iraq is facing a severe humanitarian crisis, with families struggling to meet their most basic needs after years of conflict and unrest.

Right now, vulnerable communities are at risk — children, orphans, widows, and female-headed households living in fragile conditions without food, clean water, healthcare, education, or safe shelter.

Through The Zahra Trust's humanitarian response in Iraq, we deliver life-saving support including food, water, healthcare, education, and emergency relief. Your support helps vulnerable children, women, and families survive hardship, restore dignity, and rebuild hope for the future.
