I wish to thank you for your feedback.
AlhamduliLah I work with the Norwegian United Nations Disaster Assessment and Coordination Support and trust me, I know there are alot of charities out there. As you said; "too many chiefs and no Indians". You are 100% right.
I'm using, AlhamduLillah, my personal funds to start these projects without asking for donations.
These projects are in the starting phase and I wanted to gather them all up in one website with background information and receive intellectual help from my Muslim brothers and sisters, think of it as a
project group. The website and organization or group will not gather donations from people, rather it's hopefully going to inspire and shift Muslim thoughts into working together. So we're not looking and will never look for any donations towards these projects from people.
The funds will come from our businesses and business partners.
All we need right now is a good simple name for our website and your feedback on everything we do. :statisfie
JazakalLah xair brother.

This seems to be the case of "too many chiefs and no Indians".
It seems like everybody today wants to open up some charity negating teamwork. In many cases this actually is counterproductive.
It reminds me of an interesting article that I have read years ago. In the UK, many Islamic charities exist. Each charity was collecting money for this very technological water pump in Sudan. Believe it not, but each charity collected only less than half the value....and persisted on carrying on trying to collect the remainder. The writer of the article then investigated and found that another 3 Charities were doing the same.
Each charity waiting to collect the FULL amount meanwhile - All 4 charities collectively had more than the value to by and install the pump !!!!
WHERE IS THE SENSE IN THAT ?????
Too many Chiefs....
