Now in its 5th year, Al Madina works throughout the year to help families who live below the poverty line to identify sustainable means of income generation and then supports them in implementing long term strategies which help take them out of the poverty cycle.

With this project we directly involve the community in welfare work. We invite applications from anyone from our community, once we have assessed them against a strict eligibility criterion, we work with the applicant and the family in question, to develop strategies to improve the immediate situation and alleviate poverty by generating a sustainable long-term income stream.
We involve our community by giving full responsibility but demand accountable spending and impact evidence in return.

This is a hugely successful project, a real partnership between the community and the mosque at the grassroots hands-on level with Al Madina providing strong leadership and direction.
