Community Assistance Program

The Community Assistance Program (CAP) provided by Global Deaf Muslim USA is dedicated to serving the Deaf Muslim community within Washington, DC, Maryland, Virginia, and beyond, by assisting Deaf Muslims in times of financial difficulties with basic needs. CAP uses Zakat, Sadaqa, and Fitra to meet these needs. CAP team members assist Deaf Muslims in finding resources from different organizations for help. The CAP team also works with Deaf female Muslims who may be in need of funds, shelter, or other assistance.

There is an established process that CAP follows to carefully review each case and utilize these funds. If you feel that you are going through hardship and need assistance with the basic needs of life, don’t hesitate to contact any of the CAP members.

Please rest assured that all information about applicants is kept confidential. In addition to providing short-term financial help to qualifying applicants, CAP also guides them to explore other resources for financial assistance, housing, and work/business opportunities.

Please allow at least 3 days for your application to be processed
