Charity tins for our "From Barn to Mosque" fundraiser have been given out to the eldest child in each 糖心vlog破解版 family earlier this week, with some students already returning the tin full of charity money, mashaAllah!
As many of you would have noticed, we have commenced renovation works to the musalla extension as a short term measure. However, our main effort will be to raise the money we need to build the actual mosque. So like last year, we are raising funds to move out of the barn and into a pleasant and comfortable environment of a purpose built mosque fit for worship.
As in the previous year, this project involves our College community by having sent home a charity money tin for each family at the College. Last year, we raised about $40,000 in Ramadan and combined with the parents and community efforts, the total is over $80,000 at present.
It is important that these donation tins are returned to school as they are a trust (amanah) for all those people who have been or will be putting money in them from your friends and family. Even if the cans are not full or remain empty, these cans must be returned by the start of Term 3.
