MuslimGiving Celebrates First Anniversary in style

Emdad Rahman

ON MONDAY, 1st APRIL MuslimGiving welcomed hundreds of charities to an anniversary event at the X+Why building in Whitechapel.

Representatives of charities came from across the country to see first hand how MuslimGiving is keeping its promises by helping Muslim charities secure vital funds by providing a bespoke online donation platform for charities, fundraisers and donors.

Sadiqur Rahman, Chair of MuslimGiving, said, “Charity is worship for us. It is a religious duty and it plays a major part in our lives. We will go the extra mile to support our registered charities. We are passionate about MuslimGiving and strongly believe in what it can do to empower the Muslim community.”

Ebadur Rahman, Managing Director of MuslimGiving, said, “It is important to engage the sector at every level and provide a forum for charities and professionals to meet, network and learn.”

Distinguished guests present at the event included Rahim Jung, Fundraiser and Presenter; Harun Khan, Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain; Nick Greenwood, Policy Development Officer of the Fundraising Regulator; and Mohamed Ali Harrath, Founder and CEO of Islam Channel.

Harun Khan said “We need to build the capacity of Muslim charities so that they continue giving. Muslims are the most generous.”

Nick Greenwood said, “Charities do really important work, helping those in the greatest need. MuslimGiving is committed to high standards of fundraising and understands the importance of safer giving and online donations.”

Mohamed Ali Harrath said, “Giving charity is our faith. MuslimGiving unites Muslim charities under one umbrella and together we are a force for good.”

It was an amazing and inspirational evening, during which charities praised MuslimGiving for their support, advice and the great philanthropy they have shown in times of adversity and emergencies, when MuslimGiving has waived its fees as a way of making their own contribution. Charities in the room commended MuslimGiving for being leaders in the sector, paving the way to making life easier for charities, fundraisers and donors, and being a user friendly donation platform.

Muslims all around the world are ready to welcome the holy month of Ramadan. MuslimGiving launched a timely new campaign, RamadanGiving. The campaign aims to share great fundraising ideas and encourage people not to stop at making donations but also to take part in fundraising activities with related charities.
