What is Social Enterprise?
At House of Sadaqa, our social enterprises are vital to our mission of supporting local families and individuals in need. By combining business principles with our charitable goals, we create sustainable sources of funding that help us deliver essential services and programs.
Why We Do It
Social enterprises allow us to:
- Generate Sustainable Funding: By running businesses that align with our values, we create a continuous stream of income to fund our charitable initiatives.

- Ensure Consistent Support: The profits generated support our core services, including counselling, home essentials, laundry services, and our charity shop.
- Expand Our Reach: Sustainable funding allows us to grow our programs and help more people in need.
