Projects
The Baraka Khan Foundation supports numerous initiatives that were close to Baraka’s heart and she personally supported these projects.
Calligraphy Course
Baraka’s unwavering commitment to calligraphy has inspired the Foundation to continue this art form, encouraging others to take the opportunity to learn from esteemed calligrapher Shaykh Moustafa Hassan. Learn more about the programme.
Macmillan Cancer Support
Throughout her journey in fighting cancer, Baraka developed a compassionate, heartfelt connection with Macmillan Cancer Support. Baraka helped spread the word about Macmillan giving birth to her very own campaign: ‘Make Every Breath Count’.
Baraka’s Open House
Baraka’s Open House celebrates life, faith and learning. Baraka specially requested that an open house event be held every year to allow friends and family to come together in her memory; to share thoughts, reflections and a common purpose.
BKF Huffaz Awards
The BKF Huffaz awards have been named in Baraka’s honour to recognise the achievements of students who complete the memorisation of the Holy Qur’an. Every year, a graduation ceremony is held for these students who complete the process and receive a prize.
