How Your Qurbani Helps in Somalia
Somalia: Resilience Through Decades of Crisis
Somalia has endured over three decades of conflict, instability, and recurring natural disasters. The country faces a devastating combination of armed conflict, prolonged drought cycles, and flooding. Over 8.3 million people need humanitarian aid, and 4.3 million are acutely food insecure.
Why Somalia at £40?
Somalia offers the most affordable Qurbani worldwide at just £40 per sheep. Livestock rearing is a traditional livelihood and animals are abundant. Our local teams purchase directly from pastoral communities, supporting their recovery. Despite the low price, every animal meets Shariah requirements - inspected for age (minimum 1 year), health, and fitness.
Operations and Distribution
We operate in Mogadishu, Baidoa, Kismayo, and rural areas. Distribution prioritises IDP camps (Somalia hosts over 3.8 million internally displaced people), orphan-headed households, and drought-affected communities. Each family typically receives 2-4 kg of fresh meat.
Maximum Impact, Minimum Cost
At £40 per Qurbani, a donation of £200 provides five full sacrifices, feeding approximately 30-40 people. This makes Somalia ideal for donors giving multiple Qurbanis for loved ones or voluntary extra sacrifices.

Somalia has a centuries-old pastoral tradition. Even in the worst droughts, livestock rearing remains the backbone of the rural economy. Our long-standing partnerships with Somali livestock markets in Mogadishu, Bosaso, Galkayo and Baidoa keep the price low while every animal still meets the Shariah requirements.
At £40 per sheep, Qurbani in Somalia is the cheapest available anywhere in the world through a UK registered charity. The price reflects local livestock economics, not lower quality. Every sheep is at least one year old, healthy, and free of disqualifying defects.
A country where your Qurbani changes the year
Somalia ranks among the most food-insecure countries in the world. Three consecutive failed rainy seasons in the early 2020s pushed parts of the country into famine conditions. Even in better years, malnutrition rates among children remain dangerously high.
For a family in an internally displaced camp on the outskirts of Baidoa, fresh meat is a once-a-year experience. When you give your Qurbani in Somalia, you are giving that family a Sunnah meal they will remember.
How your Qurbani is performed in Somalia
Our Somali team operates across the south, central and Puntland regions. Animals are sourced from local livestock markets, supporting Somali pastoralist families whose livelihoods have been hammered by drought. Every animal is hand-inspected before sacrifice.
Slaughter is performed by a trained Muslim butcher facing the qiblah with the recitation of "Bismillah, Allahu Akbar" on your behalf. Meat is then divided and distributed Hand to Hand to pre-verified families: orphans, widows, the elderly, people with disabilities, and families displaced by drought.

Why £40 in Somalia outperforms £200 elsewhere
Some donors ask if the lower price means less impact. The answer lies in purchasing power. Forty pounds in Somalia provides a full sheep that feeds eight to ten families. The same forty pounds in the UK might buy a single tray of lamb chops at a supermarket. Your Qurbani currency is far stronger when it lands where it is needed most.
