From your gift to a working well
Our teams survey the water table, drill and line the borehole, and fit a durable pump on a sealed concrete apron. You see the finished well — and the families using it.
See water projectsYour Qurbani, performed on time and filmed
The animal is selected to the sunnah, slaughtered in the days of Eid, and the meat distributed to families who rarely eat it. You receive dated photos and video.

We send the proof back, project by project
Every project returns to you with photos, a short video and a written report — with the GPS location, so you know exactly where your good landed.
How it worksWhy it matters
“The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like a seed which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains.”
“Whoever gives in charity the equivalent of a date from honest earnings — Allah accepts it with His right hand and nurtures it, as one of you nurtures his young horse, until it becomes like a mountain.”
This is what Thawab is built to do — turn one gift into a documented act of good, so its reward keeps growing long after you've forgotten you gave it.

What donors say
From supporters in the UK, Canada, Australia and beyond.
Gave a well in my father's name. Three weeks later I had photos of the pump and the village name. Exactly what I hoped for.
Yusuf A.
Manchester, UK
The Aqiqah certificate with my son's name arrived by email the same week. Clear, calm, no chasing.
Amina D.
Toronto, Canada
I sponsor an orphan monthly. The annual update actually tells you how the child is doing at school. Very transparent.

Frequently asked questions
If your question isn't here, contact us — we reply within one business day.
Thawab is operated by a US-registered company that delivers charitable projects on behalf of donors. Gifts are not tax-deductible and we do not issue tax receipts.
Every project is documented. Once it is complete you receive photos, video where possible, and a short written report — often with GPS coordinates or the name of the school, village or family.
Food and Qur'an distributions are usually completed within a few weeks. Wells take longer — typically one to three months depending on drilling conditions. Qurbani is performed within the appointed days or, for year-round orders, within two weeks.
You can give in USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, NZD or MXN. Your card is charged in the currency you select at checkout.
