Get involved
Every gift, large or small, one-off or monthly, helps keep the Galdogob Mental Health Center running: medication, staff, safe places and community outreach.
Our appeals
Thanks to 169 donors, our first appeal raised £4,278 to build and equip the Galdogob Mental Health Center: a safe, residential home for people living with severe mental illness who had nowhere else to turn.
A dedicated water tank would give the center a safe, reliable water supply every day, for the patients in our residential care living with mental illness and the staff who look after them: drinking, washing, cooking and hygiene, year-round.
Demand for care outstrips our space, especially for women. Extending the women's wing would let us admit more female patients living with mental illness and care for them safely, privately and with dignity.
Ways to give
A regular gift helps us plan ahead and keep the center running reliably, steady support that sustains care month after month.
Give a single gift of any size. Every pound goes toward care, medication and dignity.
Much of Rajo's work supporting people in poverty and ill health is Zakat-eligible. Let us know if you'd like your gift treated as Zakat.
If you're a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid adds 25p to every £1 you give at no cost to you. Get in touch and we'll set it up.
Are you an organisation, mosque, community group or clinician who wants to help? We welcome partners who share our commitment to dignity and evidence-based care in Somalia and the UK.
