Due to tremendous need and an overwhelming response from our donors, Islamic Relief USA has increased its COVID-19 response commitment again, now to some $5 million from the initial $1.9 million. And globally, the Islamic Relief family has responded with $10 million so far to help.
Work Across the U.S. and Around the World
IRUSA is working with more than 140 partners across the United States to get critical aid to communities that are in desperate need of support.
