SUMMARY:Understanding Your Role as a Muslim Board Member
DESCRIPTION:Building Stronger Muslim Charities & Masjids in Canada\nSound Vision Canada is excited to announce an online learning opportunity to help build stronger Muslim charities and masjids across the country. Despite the growth and importance of masjids and Muslim charities in Canada\, many boards struggle with lack of formal governance training. This gap often leads to missed opportunities to expand positive community impact. \nOur online training session with Junaid Mirza equips Muslim board members with the knowledge\, tools\, and confidence to lead effectively while fulfilling their religious and civic responsibilities.  \nParticipants will: \n\nExplore board members’ legal\, fiduciary\, and spiritual responsibilities as trustees of community amanah.\nLearn how Shura (consultation)\, transparency\, and accountability align with Canadian nonprofit governance.\nUnderstand the balance between oversight and interference in day-to-day operations.\n\nThe recording and presentation slides will be shared with all those who register\, insha Allah. \nJunaid Mirza is a partner at PwC Canada\, where he leads strategy and consulting for law firms and legal departments. In addition\, Junaid leads PwC Canada’s Entity Governance and Compliance practice\, providing entity and board management services to over 600 entities in Canada. With over 20 years of experience\, Junaid works with boards and executive teams to strengthen accountability\, risk\, oversight\, and financial stewardship. \nJunaid is actively involved in the Muslim community initiatives\, focusing on governance\, excellence\, transparency\, and long-term sustainability. He has served on boards both within and outside the community\, currently serving on the boards of The Muslim Fund and the National Muslim Action Fund. Previously\, Junaid has served on the boards of Muslim Neighbour Nexus\, The Pearson Institute for Progressive Policy\, Working Skills Centre\, Fakih Foundation\, United Way of Halton and Hamilton\, Islamic Finance Advisory Board\, and Multilingual Community Interpreter Services. \nJunaid is also currently pursuing advanced studies in Islamic scholarship\, bringing faith-informed perspectives to institutional leadership and board development. \n*IMPORTANT* We will be sharing the Zoom link with registrants via email shortly before the event (after 5 PM EDT).
