With the grace of Allah, ISF schools have accomplished much progress over the last few decades. However, much work remains, and the road ahead is still long and demanding. Given the current challenging political climate facing our community, we are called upon to do more and take our schools to the next level of growth. The new mission must be to inspire the next generation of Muslims to become influential journalists, political leaders, captains of industry and heads of commerce. Future generations of Muslims must be prepared to better understand and navigate the power dynamics of the modern world and can fully engage in the political process, in order to impact the national dialogue, and influence public opinion, for the betterment of the Muslim community, to raise our profile, assert our rights, and affirm our moral code of social justice, fairness, and equity on the national stage, without compromising our beliefs. Our vision is to make Islamic education accessible across the DFW metroplex and beyond by establishing more schools like Brighter Horizons Academy, ensuring that future generations of our children and grandchildren have access, reap the benefits, and contribute to the community, regardless of financial circumstances. We believe in a brighter future, where BHA’s mission is not limited by financial constraints. Islamic schools have often faced the challenge of staying financially secure while remaining accessible to all, and have relied on donations and annual fundraising, which is stressful and distracting. Our vision transcends these limitations. The ISF Endowment will provide a dependable and stable financial model, freeing us from the worries of fluctuating donations, allowing our schools to focus on what truly matters – our students and their development.
