2018 – Water, Education & Counselling

Water, Education & Counselling 

MA’s Qurbani campaign supported 241,377 people across 17 countries. In Gaza the charity installed 51 solar-powered desalination units in schools and kindergartens, giving 83,750 children and adults access to safe water and improving school attendance and hygiene practices. 

Education and emergency programming in Indonesia, Myanmar and elsewhere reached tens of thousands: 171,904 rights holders in Indonesia’s earthquake response, 96,950 people through education projects in Myanmar, and culturally-sensitive counselling for 103 Grenfell survivors in the UK. 

Following on from the new CIO structure at the end of 2017, 2018 also saw the appointment of a new board for this entity: Seven people, including six Muslims and one Catholic, five men and two women were appointed to led the NGO in its new strategic direction.

With the new board confirmed on 31 January 2018, the original 1985 entity dissolved in February 2018, with all assets and liabilities belonging to the original charity transferred over to the newly registered CIO.
