South Africa

The current riots and protest action in South Africa has severely affected homes, and people from all communities.

Kwa-Zulu Natal is one of the most severely affected areas, and many people are unable to access basic groceries such as bread, milk and other essentials.

Ashraful Aid teams are on the ground providing bread, milk and basic supplies to those affected by the riots in KZN.

Engulfed by the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic, South African hospitals and clinics are overflowing with COVID-19 patients, and there is a severe shortage of medical equipment required to treat those who have contracted the illness.
The virus attacks the lungs of those infected, and prevents patients from effectively absorbing oxygen, making breathing difficult. Due to this, COVID-19 patients require medical equipment which is not easily accessible, especially given the exponential rise in cases and the strain it has placed on the healthcare system.
Oxygen concentrators are vital in the rehabilitation process of people who have been affected by the virus. With hospitals and clinics facing a deficit of such equipment, Ashraful Aid is striving toward making oxygen concentrators accessible to those in need. Other medical supplies are also dwindling, and we aim to provide victims of the pandemic with these in an attempt to make their recovery easier.
Ashraful Aid has embarked on a campaign and is raising funds towards oxygen concentrators and medical supplies to assist communities in need. Donate towards our cause and make a difference during this time of dire need.

Without water, there is no life. A precious and scarce resource, vulnerable communities across the world struggle to gain access to clean water to be used for drinking and other household purposes. This is the reality millions of people face, as rural communities often have no water or sanitation systems and are forced to walk several kilometres to get to rivers or dams.
Join the Ashraful Aid Sponsor a Well initiative and give the gift of water. Thus far, Ashraful Aid has completed many water projects, both in South Africa and internationally. From vulnerable communities in Nelson Mandela bay to those in Sri Lanka, Mozambique and in Africa in general. Ashraful Aid has assisted thousands of people by providing them with water.
