A Loving Home for Every Child
Daughters are Allah’s blessings and raising them well is an honour for Muslims. But raising a girl is also a huge and sensitive responsibility which demands complete dedication and thoughtfulness. Al-Mustafa’s administration initially decided to start off with an orphanage for boys only. The public has been requesting Al-Mustafa’s management to initiate a similar setup for girls as well, including reputed personalities and the families of orphaned girls, especially the sisters of the boys who are already enrolled at MyHome Al-Mustafa.
After careful consideration, Al-Mustafa’s Board of Trust approved building a separate orphanage, an academy for orphaned girls and a shelter home for destitute and abandoned old age women. In 2022, a suitable piece of land in the trust’s possession was allotted to build the orphanage, senior citizen home and academy, and a building plan was designed and approved. Currently, the construction of the orphanage has been officially started, and the foundations have been laid.

All the orphans of MyHome Al-Mustafa will be enrolled in the same school constructed with the orphanage, where they will study with other students. All the children will be provided with school supplies, books, uniforms, and shoes etc. We aim to give these kids quality education so that they can pursue higher studies as per their interest in the future.
