Empowering Communities: Center for Zakat Management’s CSR Initiatives & Digital Zakat Platforms

Charity stands as a cornerstone of Islam, its significance amplified during the sacred month of Ramadan. Many within our community, despite toiling through the day, struggle to afford a proper iftar or share the joy of Eid due to financial constraints. Islam calls upon the affluent to extend their blessings to the less fortunate, especially during these revered occasions.

Yet, the desire to fulfill one’s Zakat duty often meets hurdles in identifying trustworthy avenues for donation. In response, the Center for Zakat Management (CZM) emerges as a beacon, offering a transparent and impactful platform to fulfill Zakat obligations while supporting Bangladesh’s underprivileged, including through digital channels like bKash.

Rooted in the Pillar of Zakat, CZM transcends mere collection, empowering the marginalized through scholarships, healthcare, skills training, and more. Their mission revolves around uplifting individuals and families from the clutches of poverty, fostering self-sufficiency through seven distinct programs. Over the past 15 years, CZM has touched the lives of over 1.5 million underprivileged individuals across the nation.

Colonel (Retired) Md. Zakaria Hossain, Head of Corporate Affairs at CZM, shares their journey, underscoring their commitment to societal welfare. “At CZM, we leverage Zakat and Sadaqa to not only offer financial aid but also to facilitate empowerment. Through micro-loans and entrepreneurial initiatives, we pave the way for sustained prosperity. Embracing the digital age, we ensure ease in the donation process. Through bKash, anyone can contribute, with the assurance that their Zakat will be managed and directed to those most in need.”

Donating to CZM via bKash is now streamlined and secure. Users can select CZM from the donation options within the bKash app, seamlessly completing the transaction with a few clicks. Donors can opt for anonymity and receive a confirmation receipt for their contribution.

Choosing CZM instills confidence that one’s Zakat reaches its intended recipients, fostering both immediate relief and enduring transformation across Bangladesh’s communities.
