🚨 Your Help is Needed Now More Than Ever 🚨 At #CASAJWC, our vision is clear: to create a community where every child who has experienced abuse and neglect is given the opportunity to thrive. Unfortunately, significant reductions in VOCA (Victims of Crime Act) funding—amounting to a loss of over $100,000 since 2023—are jeopardizing the stability of our programs and the well-being of the children we serve. As Julie shares, funding shortages threaten our ability to meet the growing need for advocacy and support in our community. While we’ve taken steps to offset these losses, we can’t sustain our impact without your help. Your monthly or one-time donation will help us maintain critical programs, expand support to more youth, and ensure stability during these uncertain times. Every contribution makes a difference—together, we can continue providing hope, advocacy, and life-changing support to the children who need it most. Donate today towards #CASAJWC's 2024 Annual Appeal and help us build brighter futures: https://lnkd.in/eE-9sVZg 💙

Charity—whether through money, food, clothing, or toys—is a vital practice that we should make a regular part of our lives. In Islam, even a simple smile is considered an act of charity. It’s inspiring to see people dedicate their time and effort to something spiritually enriching while supporting those in need. Here are some key takeaways about charity and its significance in Islam. Charity helps alleviate poverty, reduce inequality, and strengthen bonds within the community, fostering a sense of mutual care and responsibility. Islam emphasizes that acts of charity, big or small, are significant in the eyes of Allah, as I said above even a smile can count as charity. In fact , Zakat(charity) is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, requiring Muslims to give a fixed percentage (usually 2.5%) of their wealth annually to help the needy, support social welfare, and promote economic balance. Charity is considered a way to purify one’s wealth and soul, reduce greed, and earn Allah’s blessings and forgiveness. The Qur’an and Hadith frequently promise immense rewards for those who give generously. Ultimately, charity benefits both the giver and the receiver, serving as a powerful means to foster a more just, fair, and compassionate society.

"The decision to exclude a child from school is a life-changing one" In this powerful film, Jack, one of our educational advocates at CEN, shares his experience of supporting families during some of the toughest moments of their lives. Jack has seen first hand the challenges families face when trying to challenge a school exclusion. Only 5% of exclusions are ever contested, and even fewer are successfully overturned. For many, the process feels impossible without the right support. At CEN, we provide vital advice, guidance and advocacy for families whose children are at risk of exclusion. Our work changes lives, but we're facing a real funding crisis. Without urgent support, we may not be able to continue helping the families who need us most. Please watch the film, visit our Crowdfunder page, and consider donating. If you can't donate, sharing the post or spreading the word on social media can make a huge difference. Together, we can stand by families and give every child the chance to thrive. https://lnkd.in/eNHWHRmV
