On the occasion of the celebration of Volunteering Day, the institutions invite the whole of Jamat to take part in the 1st edition of the "Speed Volunteering" event on 7 December at 8pm at the Ismaili Centre in Lisbon.
The aim of this event is to introduce Jamat to the work of the institutions, their areas of activity, as well as the different possibilities for integrating volunteers into the various departments, taking into account their needs.
Like a "Volunteering Fair", Speed Volunteering will be a unique opportunity to take part in networking moments and explore the different programmes, activities and synergies in force in the various departments.
We would like to remind you that Mawlana Hazar Imam constantly emphasises the importance of volunteers for the development of our community and the successful functioning of both the Jamatkhanas and the institutions, recognising and admiring the participation of all volunteers in the success of our work.
“In whatever we do, at whatever level, we have always been reliant upon volunteers … especially in today’s difficult circumstances, we must never lose sight of nor undervalue the secret of our Aga Khan Network’s success, the element which underpins its professionalism… The heart and lifeblood of our network [are] the voluntary workers; the Boards, the Committees, the volunteers – young and old – who contribute their time and efforts.” – Mawlana Hazar Imam speaking at the unveiling of plaque launching the Aga Khan Hospital expansion programme at Diamond Jubilee Hall in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania on November 25th, 1982.
