Charities We Love
At Alchemiya we love these inspiring charities that support the arts, culture, heritage and education of the Muslim world.
Being charitable and giving are at the heart of Islam and it’s not surprising that it’s become a big industry. We all know about the impressive organisations that work internationally providing essential aid and help to the needy. These smaller organisations are working away doing grass roots work in communities with a passion and commitment to all they serve. They deserve our time, money and help.
