History

Atheist Refugee Relief Germany, also known as Säkulare Flüchtlingshilfe Deutschland e.V., is a German organization. Its foundation story is connected to Rana Ahmed, who did not believe in Allah and fled Saudi Arabia, eventually reaching Germany. In a refugee shelter in Cologne she found that the danger she had fled had traveled with her, in the form of other refugees, some of whom considered apostasy a terrible, even deadly crime. She later contacted Mina Ahadi, chairperson of the Central Council of Ex-Muslims (ZdE), who also lived in Cologne. The organization has completed the campaign "999 Sponsors"; although the target of 999 was not reached, two mini-jobs can now be paid permanently. It now offers a page where refugees and others can obtain resources that assist in the German learning process, available in English and German, with Persian and Arabic to follow.
