The organization has a legacy of over 70 years of devoting itself to humanitarian work to uplift the lives of deaf and hearing impaired community. Inspired by the Quranic verse, “Cooperate with one another in goodness and righteousness, and do not cooperate in sin and transgression. And be mindful of Allah” (Quran, 5:2), the foundation is working for the common good of the community ensuring rights like health and education.  

The journey started in 1954, when Mian Muhammad Amin (Late) established Sabra Masjid in Karachi aiming to offer Islamic education to children facing economic hardship. Following his passing in 1967, his successors sustained his vision by forming the Amin Hayat Trust, which eventually became Hamza Foundation in 1978. The foundation, named after Hazrat Ameer Hamza (may Allah be pleased with him), uncle to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), has since become a source of hope and resilience for marginalized communities.
