AMAANAH EXPLORES PARTNERSHIP WITH DYNAMO AND DASH CHARITIES Our Senior Operations Manager, Michelle Shattuck, and Executive Director, Ahmad Alaswad, recently met with Valerie Holland, Executive Director of Dynamo and Dash Charities, to discuss an exciting and promising shared vision for collaboration in 2025. "We want to harness the power of opportunity between Amaanah and the Houston Dynamo and Dash Charities in 2025", comments Michelle Shattuck. "Opportunities that will allow 'access to all', empowering Amaanah's youth to enroll in sports that provide a platform that transcends language, and provide a much needed outlet to the many residents and clients that call the Houston-Sharpstown-Gulfton area home." Stay tuned for updates on this and other exciting developments as Amaanah continues to advance its mission in 2025. #Amaanah #AmaanahLions
