Over the past three years, we have been a part of the Community Collaboration Initiative and the Muslim Collaboration Prizes. We are thrilled to have been presented with a $200k grant to further our group’s work and put the steps in to create a more equitable philanthropic space.

"Every philanthropist has a personal motivation as to why they give. For me, and most of my family, our ‘why’ is based upon our Muslim faith. We give because it is rooted in our faith and family traditions" -Dilnaz Waraich alliancemagazine.org/blog/how-faith… Alliance magazine
