Our Mission

FATE strives to increase and encourage the involvement of Muslim communities by providing accurate and up-to-date information while navigating them through the complexity of the US Foster Care System.

Reviving the Sunnah of Kafalah

It is well known that in Medina, during the period of prophet Muhammad’s (Peace be upon him) life, fostering care for orphans was a recognized practice known as Kafalah. FATE has set out to revive the sunnah of kafalah by creating awareness and assisting in the preparation of licensed Muslim foster families who have the ability to carry the legacy of our beloved Prophet forward.

We stand by and support these generous families who have committed themselves in providing temporary, stable and loving homes to all children – Muslim and non-Muslim alike.
