Nasims Global Rahma Initiative

At Nasims Global Rahma Initiative, we are dedicated to improving the lives of those in need by providing essential resources and support. Our mission is to make a positive impact in our community and beyond.

What we do

Give new vision

Funeral support for vulnerable minorities

Gift clean water

We collect used glasses and breathe new life into them. Partnering with Danish opticians, we provide eye tests and distribute free glasses to communities in northern Pakistan and Somalia. Have a pair of glasses gathering dust? Get in touch — and we'll make sure they reach someone who needs them.

Gift clean water

We believe access to clean, safe drinking water is a fundamental right. Right now, we are building wells in Togo and Pakistan — and you can be part of it. Donate a well as Sadaqah Jariyah, a continuous charity that lives on in the name of someone you have lost. Reach out to learn more

Funeral support for vulnerable minorities

Funeral support for vulnerable minorities

Every year, between 20 and 50 people with minority backgrounds in Denmark pass away without relatives or a network to take care of their burial. Municipalities typically offer cremation, which may be contrary to the deceased's cultural or religious background. We work to ensure they receive a burial in accordance with their beliefs.

Would you like to contribute? Your support can ensure that no one is left without a dignified burial.

Other initiatives

Funeral support for vulnerable minorities

Funeral support for vulnerable minorities

Alongside our main work, we run smaller projects for the benefit of the vulnerable. For example, we have delivered clothing to long-term patients at the closed psychiatric ward in Glostrup and delivered duvets to shelters. We also distribute food and sanitary supplies to homeless people on the streets of Copenhagen. If you have a sleeping bag you would like to donate, or an idea for an initiative, please get in touch.

Who we are

Nasims Global Rahma Initiative is a Danish charitable organisation founded in 2024. The organisation is named after Nasim Irani and aims to carry forward her philanthropic work, with a focus on compassion and care for all — regardless of background, faith or nationality. Our mission is through emergency relief, social support and humanitarian projects to create a world where rahma knows no boundaries.

About Nasim

About Nasim

About Nasim

Nasims Global Rahma Initiative is named after Nasim Irani, a woman whose life was dedicated to helping others. Her heart was filled with a desire to make a difference for the individual, and her approach to life was always filled with care, love and devotion. Nasim was born in 1952 in Gujranwala, Pakistan, and came to Denmark at the age of 21, where she had two children. Her strong faith and deep values, which our organisation is built on today, guided her throughout her life. She was a selfless person, a loving mother and someone who always rolled up her sleeves regardless of the challenges life placed before her.

After an intense battle with cancer, Nasim passed away in 2021. With this organisation, we wish to carry forward Nasim's work and continue her commitment to the vulnerable. Her legacy lives on in our mission: to create lasting good and hope for those who need it most.

Our Vision

About Nasim

About Nasim

At Nasims Global Rahma Initiative, we dream of a world where all people have access to basic necessities and are given the opportunity to live a dignified and meaningful life. We work to create a community where we lift each other up, give back and ensure that everyone can thrive and reach their full potential.

Compassion is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in the value of standing together, showing empathy and sharing what we have with those who have the least. We commit to meeting every individual with respect, dignity and care, and to always extending a helping hand, so that together we can create a better world.

Our Values

About Nasim

Our Values

Nasims Global Rahma Initiative is built on the principle of sadaqa jariyah — the enduring charity that continues to create good long after the act itself has been carried out.

This is our foundation and our driving force: to support projects that stand firm, grow and bring value to future generations. Sadaqa jariyah is a gift that does not cease to work, but continues to spread goodness and blessings. It can be knowledge that is shared, a tree that bears fruit, a well that quenches thirst, or glasses that help you see.

Like a drop in the ocean, an act may seem small, but it lives on and becomes part of something far greater. It spreads, transforms and returns as blessings that reach further than one could ever imagine.

That is why sadaqa jariyah is not merely a moment of kindness, but a legacy of enduring compassion — like the ocean itself, without end.

What does NASRAH mean?

NASRAH is more than just a name. It is an acronym born from the two names that carry the soul of our organisation: Nasim and Rahma - compassion and mercy united in one word.

But NASRAH holds even more meaning. In Arabic, the word nasrah (نسرح) means to help and to liberate - to ease the burden and give freedom to a dignified life.

That is exactly what we work towards every day. To give people in vulnerable situations the freedom to live a dignified life. Freedom from hunger, from darkness, from loneliness. Freedom to see, to sleep warmly, to be buried with dignity.

One name. One story. One promise.
