How to Choose the Right Campaign to Support on Madinah.com

“Madinah.com is home to hundreds of impactful campaigns—but how do you decide which one to support? Here’s a simple guide to help you give meaningfully”.

Start With What Moves You

Every donor has a unique reason for giving—maybe it’s a personal story, a cause close to your heart, or a desire to uplift a specific community.

Ask yourself:

• Are you passionate about education, healthcare, or housing?
• Do you prefer emergency response campaigns or long-term development?
• Is there a particular country, community, or need you’re drawn to?

Madinah’s homepage and filters allow you to browse by categories like:

• Zakat-eligible projects
• Local vs. international campaigns
• Orphan support, water wells, mosque construction, and more

Taking a moment to reflect on your values will help you find campaigns that genuinely resonate.

Evaluate the Campaign’s Credibility

On Madinah.com, transparency is key. Each campaign page includes details to help you make an informed decision:

• Organizer information: Know who is behind the campaign
• Fundraising goal and breakdown: See how your money will be used
• Updates and photos: Real-time progress on the ground
• Verified badge: Look for campaigns that have gone through Madinah’s verification process

Always take a few moments to read through the campaign story and check for proof of impact or existing endorsements.

Match Your Giving Style

Whether you’re a first-time donor or a seasoned supporter, Madinah.com makes it easy to give at your pace:

• Want to make a big difference? Look for underfunded or time-sensitive campaigns
• Prefer small but steady impact? Set up monthly contributions
• Giving Zakat or Sadaqah? Filter by Islamic giving categories to fulfill your obligations accurately

You can also donate anonymously or dedicate your gift in someone’s name for special occasions.

Consider the Urgency and Impact

Some campaigns are urgent—emergency relief after a flood, food parcels during Ramadan, or life-saving medical procedures. Others focus on long-term change, like building schools or empowering widows through skills training.

You might ask:

• Will my donation make an immediate impact?
• Is this a campaign that benefits from collective momentum (e.g., matching gifts, time-based targets)?
• Does it have a high chance of hitting its goal?

Knowing the timing and scope of your gift can help you feel more connected to the outcome.

Trust Your Instinct—Then Take Action

Sometimes, a story just speaks to you. That’s more than okay—it’s beautiful.

Supporting a campaign isn’t just about logic; it’s also about empathy. Madinah was built to connect people like you with real causes, real needs, and real people making a difference.

So browse, read, reflect—but most importantly, act.
