As a young girl, Noor felt lonely and isolated. Bullying at school weighed on her heart, leaving her anxious and unsure where to turn.
But this Ramadan, something changed. With trembling hands, she dialed the Nisa Helpline, discovering a caring voice on the other end. Finally, she wasn’t alone.Your donations to Nisa Foundation illuminate paths out of isolation and fear.
As Noor grew older, the echoes of childhood bullying affected her mental well-being. During the sacred nights of Ramadan—nights filled with quiet reflection and renewal—Noor found solace through Nisa’s online counseling sessions. Speaking to a trained counselor from the privacy of her home, Noor began to believe in herself again.
Since we started, Nisa Helpline has supported over 80,000 women and girls, offering a compassionate ear and expert guidance — 16 hours a day, 7 days a week.
