Please donate to this amazing, local non-profit before 2024 ends! Your donation helps far more students experiencing developmental disabilities in post secondary to reach their dreams! With high tuition costs, access to higher education goals impact populations of folks who experience poverty most acutely. This includes #Indigenous #Metis and #FirstGeneration #PostSecondaryStudents #Immigrants #Refugees and more. Through the Integrated Post Secondary Society's invaluable programs, students' access to these dreams come to fruition. In addition, when we bring up the topic of inclusion, it involves seeing the barriers students face, outside of their student identity as pieces to be considered when we talk about support. The costs of being a post-secondary student in this country AND province are enormous. Food and housing insecurity are other considerations that need to be addressed and to provide enhanced access to. How are we tangibly supporting all aspects of student life, in order for students to not only survive, but also to thrive? Both surviving and thriving as a post secondary student are equally important. Donate today! #Inclusion #Access #TuitionAccessIsInclusion #IPSESA #PostSecondary #SurvivingAndThriving

In my limited experience traveling to various Muslim communities over the past 4+ years on behalf of different non-profits, I’ve observed an important perspective for masaajids and their leadership to consider: Masaajids and community centers should prioritize their spiritual mission OVER financial concerns. When the focus shifts too heavily to profit, it can inadvertently push away barakah. In my visits, I found that masaajids WELCOMING outside organizations for fundraising and collaboration—whether for a school, books, Palestine, Lebanon, Sudan, or other causes—experience GREATER BARAKAH AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT than those that do not. When you provide your members with opportunities to earn Jannah through these collaborations, they often express appreciation and are more likely to support the masjid in return. This is especially true compared to those that require exorbitant amounts of sponsorship for organizations to fundraise or appeal to your masjid. Some community leaders may hesitate due to financial concerns, stating, "We are struggling" or "We can’t host your organization because we are fundraising for our own needs." However, limiting opportunities for collaboration can signal a lack of inclusivity and hinder the flow of blessings. It's crucial to remember that most non-profits approaching your masjid are driven by a desire to serve Allah and help others earn Jannah. The focus should be on how these partnerships can enhance the spiritual growth and connection of your community members, rather than solely on financial implications. I understand that planning and organizing amid community pressures can be challenging, but let’s make an intention to open doors rather than close them. May Allah bless you all always.

🌟 Embracing the Jewish Tradition of Ma'aser: Giving Back with Purpose 🌟 In Jewish tradition, the concept of Ma'aser is a powerful reminder of our duty to support those in need. Ma'aser, meaning "tithe," involves giving 10% of one's earnings to charity. 🔑 Why Ma'aser Matters: 1. Community Support: Strengthens the social fabric by ensuring that everyone has the resources they need. 2. Personal Fulfillment: Provides a sense of purpose and fulfillment, knowing your contributions are making a real difference. 3. Spiritual Connection: Deepens one’s spiritual practice by embodying the values of compassion and generosity. By embracing Ma'aser, we not only help others but also enrich our own lives and strengthen our communities. Let’s continue to give back and make a positive impact together! 💙
