Support A Small Business - Make A Happy Family! Association of Muslim Professionals (AMP) established
AMP Zakat Fund in 2013 to empower the lives of underprivileged Muslims by promoting
Education & Self-Employment. AMP realized then in its duty towards Community welfare, the potential of a properly organized Zakat Collection and Disbursement and how it can be effectively utilized to bring out the Community from the throes of misery. The principles of
Collective Zakat were used for establishing the Fund so a
Zakat Seeker could be transformed into a
Zakat Giver. Thus, through AMP Zakat Fund, we have been working relentlessly towards supporting
Higher Education, Orphans’ Education and
Self-Employment for the needy from the past8years now.
AMP Self Employment Assistance Fund, AMP supports needy Muslim individuals/families with initial capital expenditure to start a source of Livelihood for themselves. A fund of
Rs. 25000/- up to Rs.
50,000/- is provided to young, talented but unemployed poor, within the community to start a small business with the objective of promoting Self-Employment.
Through this endeavor AMP firmly hopes that the
Zakat Taker of today becomes the
Zakat Giver of tomorrow inshaAllah! This assistance is provided across the Country, mainly focusing on Rural areas. The emphasis is on Widows and Old people to start some self-sustainable activity leading to a happy family, Alhamdulillah!
In the year 2020, AMP supported
117 unemployed poor within the Community to start a small business with the objective of promoting Self-Employment. Since 2013, AMP Self Employment and Empowerment Program has supported
542 unemployed poor with a total fund of
Rs. 1.23 Crores so far Alhamdulillah! Many of these were helpless individuals, widows, elderly parents and orphan youths, who had lost all the hopes of running their families. For them all the doors seemed to be closed and they did not have initial capital to start anything of their own.
