Information
After nearly 7 years of successfully running Crescent Project, feeding and supporting the homeless and disadantaged of Sydney, al-Ghazzali Centre is looking to further expand it by consolidating other overlapping services it provides (specifically The Ansaar Project).
Masha Allah, the growth of Crescent Project has been phenomenal and your support is most appreciated. Al-Ghazzali Centre is keen to continue fulfilling this Prophetic Tradition and so is looking to make this project better and more effective.
The Logo
Inspired by the colours of the Traditional owners of the land of Australia, which so vividly paints the natural landscape- from the black barks, red desert and the golden beaches. The vivid colours are a symbol of the Australian landscape on which our diverse paths cross and meet as one human family. It honours the Indigenous people. In our shared Tradition of hospitality, the Ansaar program seeks to reach out and share the responsibility of helping the human family across the Australian landscape we share.
The Program
The Ansaar Project has been more than feeding the homeless. It has continuously provided:
- Nourishing and healthy food for the homeless and the disadvantaged
- Clothing and sleeping bags for those in need
- Providing furntiure for settlers in Sydney but are unable to afford them
- Financial support whenever possible based on the small funds available to al-Ghazzali Centre
- Counseling and support service to the homeless and the disadvantaged by partnering with Christian organisations providing such services
- Zakaat funds to Muslim in need within Australia
- Funeral assistance for families needing such assistance
- Support and Halal food to Muslims in remote Australia
- Social, educational and financial support to international students
- Support to the ill in hosptials, as well as to the families looking after the chronically by preparing meals and cleaning up their lawns and homes
In 2009, al-Ghazzali Centre expanded its humanitarian aid services to the South Pacific, our closest neighbours. Countries include Fiji, Tonga and Samoa. Al-Ghazzali Centre is committed to the Prophetic Tradition of priority to our neighbourhoods, and will continue to serve in the Australia- Pacific region as a uniquely focussed priority.
The Ansaar Project has also expanded into Melbourne by partnering with a local organisation and providing welfare support to the local community there. This expansion will now include services specifically for refugee settlers and ex-detainees, that provide:
- Welfare support
- Mentoring for the youth
- Advocacy to the governemnt about detention and refugees
- Legal aid
- projects establishment for self-empowerment
We very much appreciate your continued volunteer support, and we ask you to please increase in your financial donations and support; as you can see, the services provided are quite significant and without your continued support none of this will have been actualised. We look forward to a continued partnership as Servants of Allah, serving others but seeking no thanks or gratitude but only the Pleasure of Allah.
The People
An initiative of al-Ghazzali Centre for Islamic Sciences & Human Development, the Ansaar Project is a family unit of Helpers, who seek no personal benefit, other than a sense of contentment that they have played their role in touching the lives of others in a positive way. They are Witnesses to their Creator that they truly serve humanity.
Become part of the Ansaar- the true Helpers, and help others in the South Pacific, and celebrate the human family.
