When crisis hits, essentials become out of reach. International Islamic Youth League IIYL delivers vital items including clothing, shoes, bedding, hygiene essentials and more to people facing hardship across Africa. Winter brings even greater strain for families already under pressure. This season, alongside our business and community partners, we’re helping families stay warm and safe by delivering the items they urgently need.

This winter, we will be supporting thousands of vulnerable people as they face cold, hunger, and isolation. We’ll be delivering more than shoes, clothing, and hygiene essentials. We’ll be delivering hope to children, the elderly, the homeless, and the forgotten. And with Aviva match funding doubling all donations is always open your support can go twice as far in reaching people who would otherwise face the cold months ahead, alone.

Today there are children who sleep on bare floors.

Mothers who wrap their babies with thin cloths in the cold night.

Students who walk miles to school with torn bags.

Families who have lost everything and are hoping for just one blanket, one pair of shoes, one mattress

Today, IIYL launches a simple but life-changing campaign:

“Your Second-Hand Goods Can Be Someone’s First Hope.”

We are calling on caring individuals, families, churches, companies, hotels and communities to donate:

What you no longer use can restore dignity to someone in need.

Your unused items can bring warmth to a child.

Your small act of kindness can help a displaced family start again.

All goods should be loaded in containers and should be directly shipped to our regional Head office based in Accra, Ghana with the address below.

At International Islamic Youth League, we believe in a sustainable world where no usable goods go to waste—and every person has the essentials they need to thrive. We collect and redistribute everyday items like bedding, clothing, footwear, and toiletries—diverting them from landfill and delivering them to people experiencing poverty, displacement, or crisis. By working with businesses, brands, and communities, we turn surplus into support—reducing waste, protecting the planet, and ensuring people in crisis aren’t left behind, but treated with compassion so they can rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.

We need just 10,000 people to donate €25 to help us reach our €250,000 target this winter, this funds will be allocated for the packing, loading, shipping, clearing containers and local transportation cost to get relief items to the vulnerable beneficiary community. With Aviva match funding now doubling all donations for a limited time, your support can help us reach twice as many people when they need it most.
