Collaborating is Dreaming Together! 

As part of the IU Muslim Philanthropy Initiative's Community Collaborative Initiative (CCI), IMAN Associates president, Syed Ali Saeed, and Executive Director, Hiba Alami, joined  more than 65 people in Chicago, IL on Saturday, March 12 to learn, share and network together. CCI is concluding its 3 year research project, and this year, the main focus is sustainability. During the event, CCI participants, allies, funders and the Muslim Collaboration Prizes Selection Committee Members were able to talk about their experiences, learnings and also, there was a time to provide feedback so collaborations can strengthen. 

IMAN Associates is a member of the "Community Organizing" cohort, and collaborates on the project with Muslim Alliance of Indiana, Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago, Reviving Islamic Sisterhood Empowerment, and Minnesota Muslim Leadership Coalition. 

Bidding Farewell to Our Inaugural Executive Director

Picture
On March 31, IMAN Associates issued a statement announcing the departure of its inaugural Executive Director, Hiba Alami, who is leaving after five years of leading IMAN Associates from its founding through this year. ​
​
During Alami's tenure, IMAN Associates achieved notable milestones, including Muslim voter mobilization efforts and candidate meet and greets for statewide and federal offices. The organization advocated for and against numerous legislative proposals and bills, standing in solidarity with other marginalized communities on an array of social, racial and economic issues.  It educated the legislature and 
fellow Hoosiers on Muslim centric issues and collaborated with like-minded organizations to bring positive change to our communities. IMAN Associates was also at the forefront of the Muslim community's response to heinous and unfortunate hate crimes, including the murder of Mustafa Ayoubi in 2019, the 2020 shooting of the Masjid-E-Noor mosque in Indianapolis, and the 2021 vandalism of the Islamic Center of Bloomington, IN.   We wish Alami great success in her future endeavors.
