Our Activities

Fundraising dinners

UMLAS organises fundraising dinners to provide an opportunity for the organization’s supporters, philanthropists, volunteers and staff to mingle, have fun, enjoy a delectable meal and renew their commitment to the organisation’s mission.

Our flagship dinner is the annual members’ dinner where we recognise outstanding contributors in the year with accolades. It is also an opportunity for members and contributors to network.

Swadaqa drives & Sports

Swadaqa is charity given selflessly purely for the sake of helping those in need. Allah (SWT) promised to replace everything that we give in charity when He says in the Quran: “Say, “Indeed, my Lord extends provision for whom He wills of His servants and restricts [it] for him. But whatever charity you spend – He will compensate it; and He is the best of providers.” (Saba 34:39).

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) further emphasised this concept when he said:  “Charity does not decrease wealth”. [Muslim]

UMLAS swadaqa drives goes towards one of its charity funds including digging of wells, building mosques, building schools and distributing knowledge, educating orphans. The donor can decide to which destination he or she wants the Swadaqa to go.

Sports is another avenue to promote fitness members, and keep their bodies and minds healthy and raise money. At the Annual sports gala members and contributors get an opportunity to experience a family outing filled with fun fair and merrymaking in a halaal setting.
