Details

The Siraj Institute Charitable Foundation is seeking a team of students to develop a community engagement initiative aimed at strengthening the support systems within a local mosque or community center. The project focuses on identifying a specific need within the community, such as educational workshops, health awareness programs, or youth engagement activities. Students will apply their classroom knowledge to design and implement a practical solution that addresses this need. The goal is to create a sustainable initiative that not only benefits the community but also provides students with real-world experience in project management, teamwork, and community service. The project encourages students to engage with community members, gather insights, and tailor their approach to ensure maximum impact and relevance.

Deliverables

The project deliverables include a comprehensive project plan outlining the identified community need, proposed solution, and implementation strategy. Students will also deliver a final report detailing the outcomes and impact of the initiative. Additionally, a presentation to the community stakeholders will be conducted to showcase the project's results and gather feedback. The deliverables aim to provide a clear framework for future iterations or expansions of the initiative.
