Religiously affiliated charities

Religiously affiliated charities are non-profit organizations connected to specific faith traditions or religious groups. They operate to serve community needs—such as poverty relief, education, healthcare, and social justice—guided by the values and principles of their faith. These charities often rely on religious teachings to shape their mission and activities, and may seek support from members of their faith community. While their religious affiliation influences their work, they are generally open to serving all individuals regardless of belief, focusing on humanitarian goals rooted in their spiritual principles.
