After managing funds worth millions, developing indices for stock exchanges, and founding two successful fintech startups, we saw that investing works.

And we decided to use it to do more good in the world—make donations perpetual.

When we had the initial concept of Afterfund defined, we prepared a pilot fund with our partner organization Chi-Care, and we announced it on Linkedin.

People from 10+ countries around the world showed their support and donated.

After just a couple of months, donations grew through halal investing and profits were distributed to provide warm meals.

Original donations stayed invested to continue growing.

Following the success of the Chi-Care "meals" Afterfund, charities like Paani, Jabal Foundation, and Dobro.ba launched Afterfunds to continuously build water wells in Pakistan, help orphans in Bosnia, and support education in Indonesia.

We gave a talk at the University of Oxford, and partnered with the Oxford Majlis to foster proactive engagement and education of new generations about Afterfund's model.

In this podcast, made for new generations of Muslims, we discuss how our community can be proactive and solve the problems of tomorrow.

The American Islamic College partnered with Afterfund to create their own fund as the next step in making their university self-sustainable.

In the devastating floods in Bosnia, many lives were tragically lost, including the parents of two children.

Thankfully, Dobro.ba had previously created a fund with Afterfund. People had donated, funds had grown, and now they could immediately be used to provide stipends for these orphans. And because the original donations remain invested, the fund will continue to provide new stipends for them, over and over again!

This is a powerful example of how proactive planning with Afterfund can address challenges before they escalate into critical issues.

After Oxford, Afterfund was invited to the Syracuse University, where we discussed the Islamic Golden Age, the importance of entrepreneurship in our community, and the role of Afterfund in building proactive communities.

At IOST and Malden Islamic Center, we had a chance to discuss the ideas behind Afterfund with masjid communities.

“I recommend Afterfund to many masaajid and any institutions that are looking to find an investment platform for their organization.”— Imam Anas Shaikh

Chi-Care organized a week where meals from their Afterfund were distributed for the third time, which further solidified Afterfund's concept of making a single donation continuous.

With the help of investors from the US, the UK, and Europe—people who believed in our mission—Afterfund successfully raised a pre-seed investment round, helping us enter the next stage!

We expanded our core team with Nermin and Ihsan, engineers that deeply share our mission in rebuilding the waqf system for the new generations.
