Abstract

As a community educational institution, Permai Learning Center only relies on donors' kindness to continue the learning program. They are unlikely to collect monthly fees from parents because of condition. Using Participatory Action Research (PAR), this community service aims to build capacity for Permai management on the concept of financial independence and the foundation's endowment fund management plan. Also, assist and facilitate the Permai management in establishing LAZNAS to realize monetary independence for the foundation. The capacity-building process, including Focus Group discussion and training, was carried out collaboratively between facilitators from ISDEV USM, and IAIN Ponorogo. Through capacity-building, Permai changed the financial management funding from charity-based to LAZNAS-based. The evaluation results indicated that this community service increased the Permai social worker’s understanding of LAZNAS management as a new paradigm. Besides that, the community services were also successful in increasing Permai social workers understanding about collecting Zakat, Infaq, Shadaqah, and waqf fundraising perspectives, sharing of grant wakaf, and transparent and accountable Zakat, Infaq, Shadaqah, and Waqf reports. The community service team recommended that Permai management provide LAZNAS Permai. If LAZNAS Permai is running optimally, Permai will be able to design quality education programs independently for PMI children in Penang, Malaysia.
