Who We Are

Boxes of Shukr was born out of a simple belief: gratitude should be shared, not just felt. What began as an idea to create small acts of kindness has grown into a community-driven initiative dedicated to delivering care packages to families and individuals across Texas.

We are an interfaith, compassion-centered young adult team that values unity, service, and sincerity. Boxes of Shukr exists because we believe that even the smallest act of giving can uplift hearts and strengthen communities.

Behind Shukr are ordinary people with a shared vision:

  • Zahrah Iqbal — Founder & Executive Director
    Driven by a passion for service and a vision of spreading gratitude through action, Zahrah started Shukr to create meaningful impact in the lives of others.
  • Asiya Khan — Brand &  Creative Director
    Asiya ensures that Shukr’s efforts are organized, impactful, and reach the people who need them most. Her dedication to building bridges and supporting communities is at the heart of our work.
  • Abeer Sheikh — Logistics Director
    Abeer oversees the planning and coordination behind Shukr’s events and fundraisers, ensuring every initiative runs smoothly and efficiently. Her leadership and attention to detail help transform Shukr’s vision into meaningful action.
