- What is TMWF?
- Texas Muslim Women’s Foundation (TMWF) is a U.S. based 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization working to empower, promote and support all women and their families through education, outreach, philanthropy and social services. Since 2005 we have provided assistance to women, strengthening the individual, her family and the community as a whole.
- Where does my money go?
- Every dollar that you donate will directly support the work of TMWF, especially PEACE IN THE HOME social services. We assist women and their families who are struggling irrespective of their background, ethnicity or religion. We also provide assistance to immigrants, refugees, the poor and the victims of domestic violence. Services include 24 hour hotline, case management, crisis counseling, child therapy, services for the elderly, short-term financial assistance, translation in 14 languages, food, clothing and basic needs, Peaceful Oasis Shelter, transitional housing and legal assistance.
- Why help TMWF?
- The welfare of women and their children, regardless of their religion or race, is the foundation of a healthy community. When you support TMWF you are helping achieve this goal of supporting women and their children by breaking the cycle of violence within future generations. It is a widely proven fact that the majority of abusers were themselves victims of domestic violence. Muslim women that are victims of domestic violence need culturally and spiritually sensitive services to help them and their children. When you support TMWF you are supporting this underserved population!
- What is the Peaceful Oasis Shelter?
- The Peaceful Oasis Shelter is a 24-hour crisis shelter run by TMWF for women and their children who are victims of domestic violence. It offers women a safe refuge and a welcoming place to start anew. We welcome individuals of all backgrounds, and we are also able to accommodate spiritual, cultural, dietary and language needs of Muslim women not addressed in the mainstream shelters.
Services include: 24 hour emergency hotline and shelter, case management and assistance, counseling, child therapy and legal services.

We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.
TMWF helps people who have been living with fear, people who needs help & support to stand on their feet to make a better life for themselves and their children. TMWF helps battered and abused women and children, the survivors of abuse, and all others that are in an environment of domestic violence. Sadly, there are many women out there who needs that kind of help. Please join me to do something for them, to help them have a safe home.
Our support will help the Peaceful Oasis Shelter, which can be a lifesaver for these individuals. Donate generously to TMWF for they are a lifeline to women in our community. No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted, every dollar you help out with goes a long way.
Thank You!
