Established in
1996. Inspired by the Muslim values of Taqwa (Faith) and Ehsan (Compassion),
the Foundation is modelled upon the belief that commerce and charity are
interconnected. As a result, a portion of income earned from business is
channelled to charity.
Islam urges the
quest of knowledge for society to advance, and the Albukhary Foundation puts
this into practice. Its primary focus is education as a means to empower the
poor as well as forge greater understanding between Muslim and non-Muslim
communities. In addition, the Foundation is committed to health & welfare
programmes that are aimed at giving the poor the dignity of life. While
responding to appeals from people, regardless of culture or creed, the
Foundation also addresses issues pertinent to the ummah, especially with regard
to Muslim scholarship and Hajj pilgrimages.
The Foundation’s
programmes are implemented by three entities: the Albukhary Foundation Head
Office, the Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia and the Kompleks Ilmu Sharifah Rokiah.
Albukhary Foundation has grown to have an international presence, just like the
Albukhary Group of Companies. This affirms the notion that commerce and charity
can move in tandem.
These are some activities being held by YAYASAN ALBUKHARY FOUNDATION
What you give, you will get back, that is what Mr. Bukhary is trying to pursue in his life in this foundation. I was amazed when I read everything about this...
