ABOUT US
Since 2001, Akhuwat has been working for Poverty Alleviation
At Akhuwat, we’ve set a new precedent among Muslim charities by enabling donors to fundloans, which can be reused upon repayment,over and over again.We’ve also set a precedent in the world of microfinance, because our loans are interest-free, as per the Islamic standard which firmly forbids Riba-usuary.
We believe that people living in poverty want the chance to uplift themselves. Because no one deserves to be dependent on handouts. And because handouts aren’t sustainable.

Create a Poverty Free World
Akhuwat gave its first loan of 10,000 Rupees (approximately AU$ 40) to a widow who was striving to earn a living through honourable means. She wasn’t looking for charity; she only wanted a helping hand. Akhuwat marked the beginning of a new chapter in microfinance. One that found its inspiration not only in economic viability, but in the Islamic spirit of compassion and generosity.
Akhuwat Believes in Alleviating Poverty
Through compassion and Interest-Free Micro-Lending
