Sabil USA

What Sabil USA does

Sabil USA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit health and human services organization founded in 2012 by twin sisters Samar and Sahar Aziz, Egyptian immigrants serving immigrant, refugee, and low-income populations in Orange County, California. Headquartered in a 6,200-square-foot facility at 3230 S Susan St, Santa Ana, with a secondary warehouse at 14712 Bentley Cir in Tustin, the organization delivers seven integrated programs: Food Pantry (monthly drive-through distributions and culturally appropriate groceries), Rental Assistance, Mental Health Services (therapy, support groups, crisis hotline), Case Management, Skill Building and Education, Medical Financial Assistance (via partnership with Rare Disease Advocates), and a Resources Directory of partner referrals. All services are offered free of charge, with no fee-based revenue model.

The business model is entirely donor-funded. Revenue is generated through charitable donations processed via the Kindful platform, fundraising events (annual Ramadan Iftar with tiered sponsorships from $1,000 Bronze to $15,000 Diamond), and grant funding from partners including Islamic Relief USA and United Way. The organization operates with a lean paid-staff structure supplemented by a volunteer network of 150+ individuals and a clinical team of licensed therapists. By 2023, Sabil USA reported serving over 25,000 clients annually, with cumulative impact of 1 million+ individuals fed and 85,000+ families supported since founding. There is no disclosed proprietary technology platform; operations rely on standard web forms, partner referrals, and in-person service delivery.

Distribution is direct to end beneficiaries through food distributions, the food pantry by appointment, private mental health sessions, and one-on-one case management. Client acquisition flows through partner referrals (Second Harvest Food Bank, Islamic Relief USA, Community Action Partnership of Orange County, Umma Adult Day Health Center), community outreach, and the organization's website and social media channels. Geographic scope is explicitly limited to Orange County, California, with no international operations.
