Every Eid, the Alisha Jilani Foundation delivers gifts to children in hospitals. These children, like Alisha, spend weeks if not months isolated in small rooms, separated from the world. Our small gesture aims to bring some joy to these innocent little faces, especially while other children enjoy their Eid games and treats.

This year, we are delivering smiles to children in four hospitals—London, Windsor, Ottawa, and Montreal. In partnership with Build-a-Bear, we are hosting special workshops for the kids in London and Windsor. For Ottawa and Montreal, where infection control limits such activities, we are delivering books to bring them comfort and joy.

None of this is possible without your support. Every donation, no matter the amount, is a part of spreading love and light to these children. Please consider supporting our work by donating through an option below:

As of 2025, MAC Give (a chapter of the Muslim Association of Canada), partnered with us and will fund our annual toy drive. There is now a direct method to donate to the toy drive through MAC’s website. Donations made through this method are eligible for donation tax receipts, as the receipts are issued by MAC.

General Note: Donating through etransfer ensures that there are no processing fees associated with any donations. Please also note that we are not yet a registered charity and therefore do not issue donation tax receipts. We will update this page as the Foundation grows and donation receipts become available.

Thank you for your support!
