**SalaamGiving, a faith-based giving platform that specifically caters to the needs
of Muslims, has launched.**

Powered by JustGiving but with an independent advisory panel that features leading
figures from the Muslim charity sector, grassroots Muslim communities and crowdfunding,
the platform aims to make it easier for charity campaigns to be seen by a community
of Muslim supporters. The platform specifies which campaigns are Zakat eligible,
and also has a Zakat calculator.

Campaigns can be launched at any time, or to coincide with specific holidays such
as Ramadan. Any charity that already is on JustGiving can submit their campaigns
to [SalaamGiving](https://salaamgiving.com/) in order for them to be featured on
to the SalaamGiving community.

The platform is currently running the £20,000 Ramadan Challenge, with charities 
that start fundraising with SalaamGiving this Ramadan automatically entered into
the competition. Each day, the best performing fundraiser will win a further £300
for their cause, with the fundraiser that raises the most by the 27th night of Ramadan
winning an additional £10,000 for their charity of choice. There are also weekly
Jummah bonuses. Runners-up and other prizes are also on offer.
