Al-Haadi 2021/2022 Charity Campaign

In collaboration with Az-Zahra Foundation, we pledge to provide WATER AID in remote areas and to SUPPORT ORPHANS, WIDOWS & VULNERABLE CHILDREN. See flyer below.

Total collected as of Dec. 28, 2021: $3,230. See below for the classes leaderboard.

During the holiday season, consider conducting fundraising activities and engage extended family and friends to get your child’s class on the leaderboard. Time spent by students for fundraising activities count towards Al-Haadi’s Community Service Award, so remind child(ren) to keep a log.

Donate online via https://zahrafoundation.ca/al-haadi/ and IMPORTANT, when checking out, donors should enter ‘Al-Haadi’ and your child’s class (e.g. Al-Haadi D2A) in the Additional Information section, so we can track donations by class.

All donations will receive a tax receipt.  The winning class will win a prize at the end of the campaign!
