Single parents everywhere face severe financial pressure with no institutional support to catch them when they fall. [In India, 38% of single-mother households live in poverty—nearly double the rate of dual-parent households.]
No Real Path to Livelihood
Separated mothers are left without meaningful opportunities to earn, grow, or provide for their families with the dignity they deserve.
[Female labour force participation rate in India stands at just 32%.]
Children's Education
Children growing up in these households often never get a fair shot, not for lack of potential but simply for lack of financial means. [Over 6.5 million children have dropped out of school across India in the last five years.]
Our mother lived every one of these realities; quietly, gracefully, and largely alone.
The Fathima Fowzia Foundation is our promise that no family has to face this the way she did.
Who We Serve
Single-Parent Households & Children
Particularly single mothers and their children who lack access to education and livelihood resources in their communities.
Destitute Women
Women facing extreme hardship who need support to rebuild their lives and care for their families.
Sadaqah Jariyah
Beyond the communities we serve, we also give through Sadaqah Jariyah — ongoing charity directed toward the construction of drinking water wells and mosques, the distribution of the Quran, and the support of students pursuing Islamic studies.
The Prophet ﷺ said: "When a person dies, all their deeds end except three — a continuing charity, beneficial knowledge, and a child who prays for them."(Sahih Muslim)
Funding Water Well
Building Mosque
Donating Quran
Supporting students pursuing Islamic studies
How We Do It
As a registered non-profit under the Government of India, we collect donations directly and channel them to target communities including single parents looking for livelihood support, funding their child's education and aiding other programmes under Sadaqah Jariyah.
We identify recipients through close community outreach, beginning with family and friends. To keep every rupee accountable, we publish a detailed transaction report — funds received and funds disbursed — on this website every fortnight, downloadable as a PDF.
