Muntada Aid

Muntada Aid is a UK-based international humanitarian charity making a profound global impact with remarkable efficiency. With a core UK team of just six permanent staff, the charity delivers life-changing health, education, water, and emergency aid across some of the world’s most vulnerable communities.

In the past year, Muntada Aid has continued to scale its operations and deepen its reach. Its flagship Little Hearts programme provided over 312 paediatric cardiac surgeries to children suffering from congenital heart defects, many of whom live in regions without access to specialist care. Simultaneously, Feed the Forgotten delivered more than 4 million meals across 15 countries, from Gaza to Pakistan.

By leveraging the expertise of global volunteers and forming strong local partnerships, Muntada Aid delivers exceptional value and sustainable impact. It is a charity that exemplifies agility, compassion, and results, all while operating with an incredibly lean structure.

In a year marked by inflation, global instability, and humanitarian crises, Muntada Aid has not only maintained but expanded its services. Its combination of strategic focus, grassroots partnerships, and deep commitment to human dignity makes it a compelling candidate for Charity of the Year.
