MuHUBbah: Going Strong in South Africa!

May 17, 2011 – As part of the muHUBbah program of creating HUBs of empowerment for the disadvantaged, a Veggie Tunnel project has been completed, in conjunction with Al-Furqan Centre. Currently 18 people are working on the garden. In addition to the veggie tunnel, the members have in the past week been preparing six vegetable beds to be planted in the near future.

In the past three weeks or so, the muHUBbah team has been busy with a community mapping effort – making visits house to house in order to ascertain what are the immediate challenges facing the community as well as their needs. Inshallah this will directs us as to where we need to focus next to begin in tackling the problems of the community. This is an ongoing project and we are still continuing with it until we attain enough information to give us a clear picture of the area we are working in.
