Emergency Fund
When humanitarian disasters arise, so do urgent needs of the victims on the ground. Revive uses our networks of Scholars to respond rapidly to humanitarian disasters on the ground, providing lifesaving humanitarian aid in the immediate and ongoing aftermath of humanitarian disaster, where the basic essentials of life, preserve life. Emergency donations are utilised to support humanitarian disasters, or to “top-up” a sudden need in an existing fund, such as to provide extra food or shelter due to a sudden surge in demand in Gaza. By donating to Revive’s emergency fund, you help to stabilise the needs of victims of humanitarian disasters, which can be the difference between life and death.

In the footprints of a humanitarian disaster
Allah says in the Qur’an: “If anyone saved a life it would be as if he saved the life of the whole of humanity.” [Qur'an 5:3]
How far can your donation go?
Your donation will be used towards whatever is needed the most in the wake of a humanitarian aid disaster. Here are some examples of how far your donation can reach:
£30 can provide 300 flatbreads
£50 can provide at least 200 litres of water
£55 can provide a family with food for a month
£200 can provide shelter for displaced families
Prices of aid vary across regions, due to economic instability, scarcity and increased demand in the wake of humanitarian disasters. Revive always works to distribute aid sustainably, in order to reach as many beneficiaries as possible. We work with multiple partners in each region to ensure a fair price for aid is always sought, without compromising on quality. Prices listed above are a guide and represent the average price of aid being distribution as per July 2024. Donating whatever you can to this fund, makes a significant impact to the victims of humanitarian aid disasters!
