After the storms in Vienna and Lower Austria, the Islamic Federation in Vienna (IFW), in cooperation with the Hasene aid association, responded with a call for donations and has not let it go silent to this day. The storms are over, but those affected must continue to be helped and their suffering alleviated.
About a month ago, after the flood disaster in Vienna and Lower Austria, Muslims living in Austria responded to our call for help and generously provided help. The Islamic Federation in Vienna and the Hasene Aid Association have forwarded some of these donations directly to families and communities in need, with a total amount of Ꞓ 40,000, and have also handed them over to local partners.
These communities and partners included:
Caritas Vienna
Red Cross Lower Austria
Samaritan Association of Lower Austria – Loosdorf location
City of St. Pölten
Vital community of Zwentendorf
We would like to sincerely thank everyone who followed our call for donations and donated, and also everyone who helped distribute the donations! Together we are stronger and can overcome all difficulties and emergency situations more easily. As a Muslim organization in Austria, we consider ourselves lucky, even if only to a small extent, to have contributed to healing the wounds and suffering of affected people.
We pray to Allah that such catastrophes never happen again and that solidarity in times of need in our country continues as always from all sides.
