Alhamdulillah, we are honored to share the recipients of the 2025 ICNA Relief EMPOWER Grants, made possible through our valued partnership with ICNA Relief.
This year’s EMPOWER Grant cycle brought forward an inspiring number of applications from educators and community leaders who are deeply committed to strengthening learning environments and uplifting their communities. Each proposal reflected thoughtful intention, creativity, and a sincere desire to make a meaningful and lasting difference.
After a careful and thorough review process, ICNA Relief announced the selected recipients of the EMPOWER Grant. Their projects stood out for their clear vision, strong planning, and powerful potential for long-term impact in classrooms and community spaces.
Each awardee will receive up to $2,000 in funding to bring their classroom-based or community-focused projects to life. These initiatives truly represent the heart of the EMPOWER Grant, supporting ideas that inspire students, foster growth, and strengthen the communities we serve.
Gratitude to All Applicants
We extend our sincere thanks to every educator and leader who applied. Your dedication to education, service, and community impact does not go unnoticed. Even for those not selected this year, we encourage you to continue pursuing opportunities to share and develop your ideas; your work matters.
At ISLA, we are grateful to partner with ICNA Relief, whose continued investment in educators and community leaders makes the EMPOWER Grant possible. Together, we believe in the power of purposeful leadership and education as a means to shape brighter futures.
Thank you to all who were part of this journey with us. We look forward to witnessing the impact these projects will have, insha’Allah.
