The most valuable asset we have to give is our time and knowledge. By looking at the multitude of opportunities, we can choose an organization that fits our value base.

 - Jan Musani

For over 40 years, Ismaili CIVIC Star Jan Musani has volunteered in many capacities, both within the Jamat and within the wider Edmonton community. Most recently, she served for 7 years with the Edmonton Food Bank Board of Directors, as Board Member, Director, and Director Emeritus. One of the accomplishments that she’s most proud of is selecting the current Board of Directors, who are diverse and better represent the makeup of the community at large. Currently, Jan is the Chair of the Edmonton Celebrate Canada Committee.

With the multitude of volunteer opportunities available, Jan urges individuals to choose an organization that fits their values, by asking themselves the following questions:

  • Do I believe in the organization’s mandate?
  • Do I believe my skills/knowledge would be of value to the organization?
  • Do I have a passion for the organization’s work?
