Funding
SAKIDAN is funded mainly by ENIXEN Group, which covers running costs. We are open to gifts, grants and volunteer time.
So the running costs never come out of your gift. How we account for it
Our place in ENIXEN Group
SAKIDAN is the charity of ENIXEN Group and of the SYED and LAM families. It is part of the Group, not owned by it.
Zakat
SAKIDAN is Islam-led. Zakat, the yearly share of savings Muslims give to people in need, is kept in its own fund and goes only to people eligible to receive it, as set out in the Quran. How zakat works here
Accounts
The association keeps annual accounts, with each fund on its own and zakat apart. How every franc is accounted for
