During the past year, the scale of global hardship continued to grow, and by the grace of Allah, HCR was able to respond to urgent needs across multiple regions. Our work in Gaza has remained a priority, where ongoing conflict has left families facing extreme hardship. Despite challenging conditions, HCR continued to deliver essential food assistance, zakat support, and emergency relief to those most in need. Alongside this, we provided humanitarian aid in Pakistan, Yemen, Syria, Bangladesh, Morocco, Uganda, and within the United Kingdom, supporting vulnerable families through food, financial assistance, education, health, and livelihoods programmes. While emergency response remains vital, HCR continues to focus on long-term impact by supporting education, livelihoods, community facilities, and youth initiatives, helping individuals and families work towards stability and self-reliance. We are deeply grateful forthe continued trust and generosity of our donors, volunteers, and partners. Your support enables HCR to serve with compassion, integrity, and accountability. Jazakum Allahu Khairan. MayAllah acceptthese efforts and make them a means of benefit for the Ummah.
