Name of Cause: Fasting 5K
Our partnership with Houston’s annual Fasting5K is a prime example of this commitment. This inspiring event unites local Muslim communities in a 5K run, channeling their dedication and athleticism to raise vital funds for Houston’s homeless population. Actable is honored to play a role in this initiative, which aligns seamlessly with our mission to empower individuals and communities. The Fasting5K demonstrates how faith, fitness, and philanthropy can intersect to create tangible social impact. It’s one of many impactful projects Actable proudly supports, reflecting our unwavering belief in the potential of collective action to create a more just and equitable world.
Cause Name: Impact Beyond Infrastructure
Actable recognizes that access to clean water is a fundamental human right, and a building block for thriving communities. That’s why we’ve proudly partnered with local country managers and ambassadors in Africa to bring life-changing change through the construction of several wells in remote areas. These wells provide more than just water: they offer health, opportunity, and dignity to communities that previously lacked this vital resource.
Actable’s approach goes beyond simple infrastructure. Our deep collaboration with local leaders and on-the-ground experts ensures projects are sustainable and genuinely meet the community’s needs. This partnership model empowers locals to take ownership of the wells, fostering a sense of pride and long-term responsibility. The success of our clean water initiatives in Africa underscores Actable’s commitment to tackling complex challenges with grassroots collaboration and locally driven solutions. We firmly believe that empowering communities is the key to creating lasting positive change.
Cause Name: Systematic support for Refugees
Actable embraces the responsibility to welcome refugees, recognizing their resilience and the potential they bring to our communities. In partnership with local community leaders across Georgia, we’ve dedicated ourselves to providing systematic support as refugees from diverse backgrounds begin the process of rebuilding their lives.
Our work with refugees goes beyond meeting immediate needs. We offer comprehensive assistance, including securing safe housing, navigating complex bureaucracies, finding employment opportunities, and fostering a sense of belonging. This multi-pronged approach ensures refugees not only survive but have the opportunity to thrive in their new home.
Actable’s involvement extends into crucial areas like language acquisition, cultural orientation, and trauma-informed support. We connect refugees with essential services and advocate for their rights within the broader community. Our volunteers and partners foster a welcoming environment and bridge cultural divides, helping refugees feel understood and supported during this challenging transition.
By providing this holistic support system, Actable empowers refugees to overcome obstacles, and become contributing members of Georgia’s vibrant tapestry. Our commitment to this work signifies our belief in human dignity and the boundless potential of displaced individuals to start anew with the right resources.
Cause Name: Establish First of Kinda Montessori School
Actable understands that education shapes the leaders and change-makers of tomorrow. That’s why we were honored to partner with Mishkah to establish a first-of-its-kind Islamic Montessori school in Cary, North Carolina. This groundbreaking school offers a unique learning environment, blending the Montessori philosophy with core Islamic values, creating a space where children can grow academically, spiritually, and personally.
Our partnership with Mishkah ensured that the school would benefit from their deep experience and commitment to educational excellence. Actable provided support across key areas including community outreach, finances, and other leaderhsip and advisory support. This collaborative approach leveraged Mishkah’s expertise while ensuring the school’s vision aligned with the needs of the local Muslim community.
The establishment of this school reflects Actable’s commitment to empowering future generations through quality education rooted in faith and a sense of community. By partnering with Mishkah, we’ve helped create an innovative educational institution that nurtures young minds and prepares them to be compassionate, engaged citizens. This collaboration embodies Actable’s dedication to creating positive change through knowledge and holistic development.
Cause Name: Adult Education Program, Nigeria
Actable Development Solutions understands that education is the key that unlocks potential, especially for adults in underserved communities. That’s why we’ve proudly launched an Adult Education program spanning various technical and non-technical topics in remote parts of Nigeria. By focusing on adult learners, we’re not only empowering individuals but also creating a ripple effect that benefits entire families and communities.
Our program recognizes that adults bring unique experiences and needs to the learning process. The curriculum is carefully designed to offer practical skills training, ranging from vocational trades to basic literacy and numeracy. We also offer courses promoting financial literacy, health awareness, and other vital life skills. Actable partners with local instructors and stakeholders, ensuring the program is relevant to the community and builds upon existing knowledge.
Investing in adult education generates a powerful multiplier effect. Equipped with new skills and knowledge, adults can secure better livelihoods, make informed decisions about health and well-being, and become active participants in their communities. Actable’s Adult Education program in Nigeria is a testament to our belief in the transformative power of lifelong learning, creating a brighter future for individuals and the communities they call home.
Cause Name: Supporting Vulnerable Muslim Women
Actable recognizes the urgent need for safe havens and culturally sensitive support for vulnerable Muslim women in crisis. That’s why we’ve established partnerships with local shelters in the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) area to extend vital resources and services to Muslim women experiencing domestic violence, displacement, or other challenges.
Supporting Muslim women shelters aligns with Actable’s belief that everyone, regardless of faith or background, deserves dignity, respect, and the opportunity to rebuild their lives. This work often involves providing essential supplies, advocating for culturally appropriate services, and offering additional support tailored to the specific needs of faith-based communities.
Our commitment to this cause goes beyond simple assistance. Actable works to raise awareness about the complex issues facing Muslim women and collaborates with local organizations to create long-term support systems. We champion holistic approaches that address not only immediate needs but also promote healing and empowerment.
By partnering with shelters throughout the DMV, Actable helps create spaces where Muslim women find safety, understanding, and the resources they need to move forward with strength. We are dedicated to ensuring that no woman faces adversity alone, and this work demonstrates our unwavering support for marginalized individuals within our own communities.
