#StrongerTogether

             In the Name of God, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

Help us leave no call unanswered so we can fill each and every sister's cup with Hope this Ramadan. 

Nisa Helpline supports and counsels vulnerable women in our community to live fulfilling and dignified lives.

Over 500 calls a month are received by the helpline from women battling grief, fear, loneliness, abuse, marital discord, mental health illness, covid-19 impacts and the list goes on.

Every dollar we receive is one more opportunity for a sister to start her journey of overcoming, healing, rebuilding, thriving, and rising above and beyond her hardships.

Together, let's Lift a Woman, and build a stronger, more resilient Muslim Community!

Our Mission

At Nisa Helpline, we believe that a healthy community is one that puts women’s mental and spiritual well-being at the forefront. Our mission is to empower Muslim women by giving them the tools they need to lead self-sufficient and dignified lives. Nisa Helpline also provides educational programs in the forms of workshops and webinars. These tools provide Muslim women and their allies the opportunity to gain insight into pertinent topics that include emotional management and spiritual remedies.

Our Service

Nisa Helpline provides toll-free peer-to-peer counselling and emotional support to Muslim women across Canada. Since its inception in 2014, we have received over 27,000 calls from women from all walks of life seeking help for issues like mental health, marital conflict, domestic abuse, loneliness, addiction, Islamophobia, self-esteem, COVID-19 impacts among others.

Our counsellors are trained to provide proactive solutions to our callers and instil preventative measures in our community. We listen, we care, we support, and we empower. Through just one phone call, a woman begins her journey to self-growth, self-healing, and self-love. We provide the resources to our sisters so that that they can get the personalized and professional help that they need to become whole again.

By Lifting a Woman, we in turn build a stronger and more resilient Muslim community with a solid foundation. Be part of the solution and make a difference.

Our annual operational costs are over $120,000, and this Ramadan, we are committed to raising $80,000.

Phase 1 = $30,000 - covers 3 months of calls

Phase 2 = $50,000 - covers 5 months of calls 

To date, we have received over 27,000 calls. This total is projected to grow by another 6,000 additional calls in the coming months. These numbers are more than telling of just how important Nisa Helpline is to so many women in our community. Don’t allow their only lifeline to be cut: help us continue our services by supporting us generously today.

Each call we miss is a sister's plea lost.
