Global Ismaili CIVIC Day 2023: Northeast Ontario
Description
Global Ismaili CIVIC Day is when the Jamat around the world puts into action our ethics of civic engagement and good citizenship and enriches the lives of the communities in which we live. We come together to participate in various activities across the world, uniting our efforts to serve humanity and exemplifying Islam's core values of service, peace, compassion, and care for the vulnerable.
The theme for the 2023 Global Ismaili CIVIC day is Environmental Stewardship. The Jamat and multifaith family members are invited to participate one of the following activities happening in Northeast Ontario:
