“Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim”
Sunan Ibn Majah 224

By connecting via skills, knowledge, experience, and resources, we are able to build a better future for the Muslim charity sector.

Who this is for and why?

To fulfil the full potential of Muslim charitable giving, MCF wants to encourage the spread of good practice within the Muslim charity organisations by providing practical and strategic benefit to all those working across the sector. This includes charity practitioners, senior staff, volunteers, and like-minded
people to help them develop and maximise excellence in the charity sector, but also improve the lives of the Muslim community.

With the rising cost of living and recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic, British Muslims have had trouble coming to terms with worldly affairs and have been deeply affected physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and financially. Hence, these tough times require the collaborative event of the Muslim Charities Convention as it is vital for increasing the mobility, productivity, and proactivity in the Muslim community.

The convention will provide a chance to ask questions and learning opportunities that will contribute to the overall progress of your organisation and the Muslim charity sector.

Secure your space as we discover and discuss valuable topics including:

✓ Explore the need of a good governance & compliance framework to ensure charities operate more ethically and transparently and be accountable to its stakeholders. By doing so, you can better understand how to build and maintain effective communication and a healthy organisation.

✓ Participate in informative sessions on safeguarding to learn how to prioritise safety and wellbeing for those you support and who work across the sector safe from abuse, maltreatment, and harm.

✓ Join our expert panel as they discuss effective ways of charity investment and how to maximise institutional funds and charitable funds through responsibility and prudent investment practices to ensure that charities’ efforts are successful and sustainable, leading to a greater positive impact on causes.

✓ Learn about alternative funding strategies like wills, legacies, and high net worth funding for financial sustainability and empowering donors to make a lasting impact with Muslim charity organisations through a philanthropic culture.

✓ Discover UK Programmes & Needs that will help Muslim charity organisations understand domestic priorities and how much funding should be allocated to them by discussing ways to build a more resilient community that can better support our needs.

✓ Recognise the priority of Cyber Security & Data for Muslim charities and why it’s important to protect the integrity of sensitive information and prevent cyber-attacks, which can damage the reputation of organisations and compromise the safety of donors.

✓ Learn how to communicate your organisational mission effectively via the public relations & advocacy topic to build trust and positive relationships with the wider community, donors, and stakeholders, and help raise awareness and support for various causes.

✓ Finally, our environment is a blessing for us. Be part of Climate: Campaigns & Advocacy and its mission to support long-term development goals. By doing so, your organisation can implement sustainable practices for a greener future and help protect communities impacted by climate change.
