The Initiative for Humanitarian Value and Mercy (IHVM) is a non
profit, non-governmental organization (NGO) established to provide
comprehensive humanitarian aid, with a particular focus on
vulnerable and displaced communities. Rooted in Islamic values of
compassion, mercy, and justice, IHVM works to alleviate human
suffering, support education, and promote long-term
empowerment.

Since its inception, IHVM has been dedicated to creating sustainable
and impactful interventions that address both immediate needs and
long-term recovery, particularly in regions facing crises, poverty, and
displacement. Our holistic approach ensures that individuals not
only receive the care and resources they need but also gain the tools
to build a better future for themselves and their communities.

Vision:
To build a world where compassion, dignity, and opportunity are
extended to all, ensuring that even the most marginalized
communities can thrive.

Mission:
To deliver sustainable humanitarian aid, promote education, and
provide spiritual and emotional support, with a focus on uplifting
internally displaced persons (IDPs), the needy, and vulnerable
populations.

Core Areas of Focus:

1. Humanitarian Aid & Relief: Responding swiftly to the needs of
   displaced persons and impoverished communities through the
   provision of food, clean water, and financial support.
2. Islamic Education & Spiritual Support:Offering access to qualified
   Islamic teachers and educational resources, ensuring continuity of
   religious and moral education for those affected by crisis.
3. Community Empowerment: Supporting long-term growth through
   educational scholarships, infrastructural development, and
   vocational training.
4. Seasonal and Special Occasion Assistance: Providing special aid
   packages during festive periods such as Sallah, distributing meat,
   foodstuffs, and other essentials to the needy.

Key Initiatives and Impact:

1. Supporting Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs):
   IHVM has made significant strides in supporting IDPs at various
   camps across Nigeria. Understanding the unique challenges faced by
   displaced families, our efforts include:- Provision of Islamic Teachers:
   IHVM provides Islamic scholars and teachers to IDP camps, ensuring
   that displaced children and adults have access to religious
   education. These teachers offer lessons on the Qur’an, Fiqh, and
   Islamic ethics, helping to preserve the spiritual well-being of those in
   distress.- Food and Cash Donations: IHVM regularly organizes food
   distribution programs and financial aid initiatives to alleviate hunger
   and poverty among IDPs. Our donations have supported thousands
   of displaced families, providing them with essential food items and
   cash support to meet their basic needs.
2. Sallah Celebrations for the Needy:
   Every year, during the Islamic festivals of Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr,
   IHVM spearheads large-scale food and meat distribution efforts. By
   providing meat, foodstuffs, and other essentials to the needy and
   vulnerable during these occasions, IHVM ensures that even those
   struggling financially can partake in the joy and spirit of Sallah
   celebrations.
3. Infrastructure Development:- Borehole Construction:
   IHVM understands the importance of clean water for vulnerable
   communities. In response to the need for reliable water sources,
   the organization has constructed boreholes in rural and
   underserved areas. These water projects not only improve
   sanitation and health but also reduce the burden on women and
   children, who often spend hours fetching water.
4. Educational Scholarships and Support:
   Believing that education is the cornerstone of empowerment, IHVM
   has invested in the future of children from needy families by
   funding their education at different levels, both in Nigeria and
   abroad. Through these scholarships, IHVM is helping to break the
   cycle of poverty and giving children the opportunity to build
   successful futures.

Scholarships for Needy Children:
IHVM has facilitated scholarships for children of vulnerable families,
enabling them to attend schools across Nigeria and other countries.
These scholarships cover tuition, learning materials, and other
educational needs, ensuring that no child is left behind due to
financial constraints.

Our Track Record: Over the years, IHVM has provided regular food and financial
support to thousands of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in
camps across Nigeria. Distributed large quantities of foodstuffs, meat, and other
essentials during Sallah celebrations, bringing relief and joy to
needy families.

• Constructed boreholes in rural areas, ensuring clean and
  sustainable water sources for underserved communities.
• Funded educational scholarships for numerous children from
  disadvantaged backgrounds, both within Nigeria and
  internationally.

organizations, and donors who share our vision of mercy and value
for all. There are various ways to get involved, from financial
