Global Mission

About Uyghur Relief

Since 2017, there has been a mass ethnic persecution against the Uyghurs, a Muslim ethnic minority group who live primarily in China’s northwestern Xinjiang region, as well as other Turkic Muslim minorities in the region. These crackdowns and persecutions have resulted in an estimated 2-3 million Uyghurs detained in internment camps for minor violations, without formal charges or access to legal representation.

While authorities in the region have called the camps “vocational training centers,” claiming that detainees are taught language, culture and vocational skills, reports of political indoctrination and physical torture suggest a different narrative.

As a result, thousands of Uyghurs have sought refuge in countries such as Turkey and Canada through government and community-sponsored Programs. However, back at home, oppression against Uyghurs continues on, with many Uyghur refugees not knowing the whereabouts of their families, whether they are even alive or not.

Where We’ve Made a Difference

Relief For Uyghur

Explore how we transform and empower communities through five sectors of intervention:

Sponsor an Orphan

Uyghur orphaned children face immense hardship as they grow up without parental care, stable support, and access to basic necessities. Many struggle with limited access to education, proper nutrition, and a safe environment, leaving their futures uncertain.

Through ICNA Relief Canada’s Orphan Sponsorship Program, you can provide essential care, educational support, and daily necessities that help orphaned children grow with dignity and hope. Your sponsorship offers stability, protection, and the opportunity for a brighter future. Sponsor an Uyghur orphan today and make a lasting difference in a child’s life.

Student Scholarship

Many Uyghur students face financial barriers that prevent them from continuing their education and achieving their dreams. Displacement and hardship have made it difficult for families to afford school fees, learning materials, and basic educational needs, placing students at risk of losing valuable opportunities for their future.

Through ICNA Relief Canada’s Student Scholarship Program, you can help deserving Uyghur students continue their education with dignity and hope. Your support provides essential financial assistance, learning resources, and academic opportunities that empower students to build brighter futures for themselves and their communities. Sponsor a student today and help unlock the power of education.

Widow Support

Uyghur widows face immense challenges as they strive to care for their families without financial stability or reliable support. Many are left to provide food, shelter, and education for their children while coping with emotional and economic hardship, making daily survival a constant struggle.

Through ICNA Relief Canada’s Widow Support Program, you can help provide essential financial assistance and basic necessities that restore dignity and stability to vulnerable women and their families. Your support empowers widows to care for their children, rebuild their lives, and move toward a more secure and hopeful future.

Settlement & Refugee Sponsorship

Displaced families forced to flee their homes often face uncertainty, instability, and limited access to essential services. Many refugees struggle to find safe shelter, stable livelihoods, and opportunities to rebuild their lives with dignity in new and unfamiliar environments.

Through ICNA Relief Canada’s Settlement & Refugee Sponsorship Program, vulnerable families receive support to resettle safely and begin a new chapter with hope and stability. The program helps provide guidance, essential resources, and community support that enable refugees to integrate successfully and work toward self-sufficient, secure futures.

Frequently Asked Questions

As a leader to empower lives, creating opportunities and strengthen the bond of humanity.

1. What is the Water for Life Program?

The Water for Life Program is an initiative by ICNA Relief Canada that provides sustainable access to clean and safe drinking water in vulnerable communities. Through the construction of water wells and community water systems, the program helps improve health, sanitation, and quality of life.

ICNA Relief Canada’s water projects are implemented in regions facing severe water scarcity, including Pakistan, India, East Africa, and Somalia. These projects are designed to serve entire communities and provide long-term water solutions.

Access to clean water reduces waterborne diseases, improves hygiene and sanitation, and allows families to spend more time on education, work, and community development instead of searching for water.

You can support the program by making a donation to help fund the construction of wells and water systems. Every contribution helps provide safe drinking water and creates lasting change for communities in need.

Yes. ICNA Relief Canada focuses on building sustainable water infrastructure that communities can maintain and benefit from for many years. Projects are designed to meet local needs and provide reliable access to clean water.
