Frequently Asked Questions

Majeedia Trust is a family-led charitable initiative focused on responsible, structured and sustainable giving. It uses family resources to support people facing genuine needs and to contribute to meaningful community projects, with a focus on education, widows, girls’ education, people with disabilities, family and community welfare, and masjid projects.

Majeedia Trust grew from a family decision. A parent chose to sell family-owned land and use the proceeds to establish the foundation of the family’s charitable fund. The initial fund was approximately ₹65 lakh. Since then, the family has continued to support charitable activities through its own resources and contributions.

The Trust supports widows, children and students (including orphans), madrasa students, girls in education, people with disabilities and their families, and families and communities with carefully assessed welfare needs. It also supports selected masjid and community projects.

Family members contribute resources to the fund, including Zakat where applicable. Support requirements and projects are assessed before allocation, funds are then allocated to selected individuals, families and initiatives, and contributions and allocations are recorded and reviewed periodically. The fund is managed with the aim of supporting charitable activities for decades.
