Since its founding in 1996, Zaman has helped some of Southeast Michigan's poorest families achieve stability and self-reliance. We have grown substantially from our humble grassroots origins into a leading humanitarian presence with global reach. Aiming to create a world where women and their children can break the cycle of poverty, Zaman has helped thousands of women and children alleviate the cycle of poverty by providing basic needs and a foundation for a better life. We empower the households we serve and promote self-reliance through training and vocational programs. As we begin to expand our efforts, we also grow resources and partnerships to better serve our local community.
