About Mishkat

Mishkat Nour Foundation launched the innovative project “Ethics Kiosk” to redefine development work in Egypt. This project uniquely combines providing support with shaping positive behavior. Ethics Kiosk is built on 14 integrated programs and nearly 140 sub-programs, all designed to strengthen values, build human capacity, and achieve both sustainable development and healthy behavior.

Among these programs are Continuous Learning, Shattara, Sheltered Homes, Mishkat Kitchen, and The Compass. Each one is crafted to empower individuals and families, while fostering responsibility towards the environment and a dignified life.

Tangible Achievements:

In Sohag, the project reached around 90 villages, offering hands-on training programs. Young people received ICDL and Mini-MBA courses, transforming from beneficiaries into active producers within their communities.

In Fayoum, the foundation renovated 20 rural homes in Youssef Al-Seddiq villages, improving roofs, flooring, plumbing, and painting, in addition to carpentry. Another 237 homes received roof coverage, while food aid was delivered to the most vulnerable areas.

In Assiut, Mishkat Nour revitalized Al-Masoudi Village, carrying out full renovations including roofs, plumbing, electricity, carpentry, plastering, and painting. In Dayrut alone, 22 houses were transformed into safe, healthy living spaces.

In Port Said, Mishkat Nour left a strong impact in areas such as Fatima Al-Zahraa, Old Labana, Sayeda Nafisa, and Al-Amal in Port Fouad. Efforts included urban renewal, infrastructure upgrades, and creating cleaner, more dignified environments. The foundation also established the Continuous Learning Center — a hub for knowledge, skills development, and family-oriented training programs.

Through Ethics Kiosk, these initiatives are delivered across some of the most vulnerable neighborhoods, aiming to improve quality of life, promote economic empowerment, and encourage positive behavior through active dialogue between civil society and the state.

Open to All:
The foundation provides a variety of activities accessible to everyone, including workshops in handicrafts (sewing, embroidery, crochet, drawing, tailoring), exhibitions and e-shops to showcase beneficiaries’ products, professional training in technology and management, youth empowerment, as well as cultural and artistic programs. Social and health support is also provided, from meal distribution to vaccination campaigns and early disease detection.
 Mishkat Nour — where giving turns into real change.
At Mishkat Nour, we believe charity is not just about providing food or aid, but about a journey that uplifts souls and reshapes communities. Through Ethics Kiosk, we deliver programs that instill positive values, expand education, strengthen economic and health resilience, and even rebuild living dreams. From Sohag to Luxor, from Fayoum to Port Said — we reach hearts before we reach homes.
