Helping Hand for Relief and Development Marks 20 Years of Humanitarian Service

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Oct. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Helping Hand for Relief and Development (HHRD) proudly commemorates 20 years of serving humanity with compassion, commitment, and impact across the globe. Since its founding in 2005, HHRD has grown into a leading international relief and development organization, transforming lives and building resilience in some of the world's most vulnerable communities.

Guided by its mission of Serving, Healing, Empowering, HHRD has provided life-saving aid and long-term development assistance to approximately 101 million beneficiaries across 80 countries and 20 refugee populations in the past 20 years. Through 14 core programs and numerous sub-projects under each, HHRD addresses critical needs in emergency relief, health, education, water and sanitation, orphan support, and livelihood development.

"This milestone is not just about the years, but about the lives touched, the resilience built, and the hope restored," said Javed Siddiqi, CEO of HHRD. "We are deeply grateful to our donors and partners who have stood with us through these 20 years, making it possible to extend compassion and relief where it is needed most."

As HHRD celebrates two decades of impact, it continues to stand with families facing crises around the world — from Palestine to Pakistan, from refugee settlements to disaster zones. Each initiative reaffirms the organization's commitment to transforming hardship into hope and empowering individuals toward a brighter, more self-reliant future.

For 20 years, HHRD has stood at the forefront of humanitarian work, driven by the belief that together we can serve, heal, and empower.
