The Safe Haven Project
Unlocking New Beginnings: Ending the Crisis of Homelessness for Vulnerable Women and Children Worldwide.
"Whoever clothes a Muslim who has no clothes, Allah will clothe him with the green garments of Paradise; and whoever feeds a Muslim who is hungry, Allah will feed him from the fruits of Paradise; and whoever gives drink to a Muslim who has no drink, Allah will give him to drink from the sealed nectar."
Hadith (on providing shelter)
Imagine the biting cold, the fear in a child’s eyes, the gnawing uncertainty of not knowing where your family will sleep tonight. For millions of women and children across the globe, this isn’t a nightmare – it’s daily reality. They are mothers trying to protect their babies, girls longing for school, families desperate for a place to simply be safe.
The Safe Haven Project, a vital initiative of Salams Foundation. We don’t just build shelters; we construct sanctuaries of dignity, safety, and new beginnings for women and children devastated by conflict, natural disasters, or extreme poverty. We believe that a secure home isn’t just bricks and mortar – it’s the fundamental first step towards healing, stability, and a future reclaimed.
Your compassion can turn fear into peace. Your generosity can make a mother's dream a reality.
The Silent Crisis: Why Your Heartfelt Support is Needed Right Now.
The global crisis of homelessness and displacement is a silent epidemic, stealing childhoods and shattering families. Women and children, already vulnerable, bear the heaviest burden, facing unimaginable risks when exposed and unprotected.
Look into these heartbreaking truths:
A Staggering Number Without Adequate Housing
Between 1.6 billion and 3 billion people worldwide lacked decent housing in 2024. Can you imagine the sheer scale of human suffering this represents? At least 330 million people endure absolute homelessness no roof, no walls, just exposure and despair.
A World Uprooted
A shocking 123.2 million people were forcibly displaced worldwide by the end of 2024. This isn’t just a number; it’s fathers, mothers, and innocent children torn from their homes, their lives, everything they knew.
Children: The Innocent Casualties
Children, who are only 29% of the world’s population, make up a heartbreaking 40% of all forcibly displaced people. By the end of 2024, 49 million children were displaced imagine nearly 50 million young lives stripped of stability, education, and the simple joy of a safe place to play. Over 2.3 million children were born as refugees between 2018 and 2024, their very first breath taken in uncertainty.
Every moment of delay means another child sleeps on cold ground, another mother fears for her daughter’s safety. Your immediate action can break this cycle.
