Project Overview

Walaal Connect is a revolutionary fundraising platform built BY Somalis, FOR Somalis. Unlike traditional platforms like GoFundMe, it enables direct Sadaqah transfers to verified families via mobile money — with absolutely zero fees.

The platform addresses a critical need in the Somali community: connecting diaspora members with families in need back home, while ensuring 100% of donations reach the intended recipients through trusted mobile money services like EVC, Zaad, and Sahal.

The Challenge

Traditional Platform Fees

Existing platforms charge 5-10% fees, meaning less money reaches families in need.

Trust & Verification

Donors need assurance that families are verified and funds reach the right people.

Mobile Money Integration

Most Somalis use mobile money, but existing platforms don't support these payment methods.

Cultural Understanding

Platform needed to understand Islamic charity principles and Somali community values.

Our Solution

Zero-Fee Direct Transfers

We built a system where donors send money directly to families' mobile money accounts. Walaal Connect takes absolutely nothing — 100% of every donation reaches the intended recipient.

Full support for EVC, Zaad, and Sahal — the most popular mobile money services in Somalia. Funds arrive within minutes, not days.

04

Islamic Principles Integration

The platform incorporates Islamic wisdom about charity, with Quranic verses and Hadith to inspire giving and emphasize the spiritual rewards of Sadaqah.
