2026 Ramadan Campaign

WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS FOR NEW HORIZON SCHOOL PASADENA

During our annual Ramadan Appeal, we invite you to support the essential work of nurturing both the minds and spirits of our students and the broader community. Your generosity allows us to continue providing an excellent academic education grounded in strong moral and ethical values, preparing our students to become thoughtful, compassionate, and empowered future leaders.

Like all independent schools, New Horizon relies on support beyond tuition and fees to move our mission forward. Donations help sustain and enhance our programs, ensuring our students have access to an up-to-date, well-rounded educational experience that reflects both academic excellence and Islamic values.

Donations made to New Horizon School Pasadena are also Zakat-eligible. According to scholars, Zakat includes all beneficial works and projects that support the community such as building and supporting schools, mosques, hospitals, etc. By giving to an educational institution, you are fulfilling your zakat obligations especially given the school’s Flexible Tuition Program that allows families of all socio-economic levels to access our unique faith-based dual curricular program in a nurturing Islamic environment.

WHY WE ARE PARTNERING WITH HUMANITARIAN DAY THIS RAMADAN

Each year, New Horizon School Pasadena partners with a different charity to provide a portion of our Ramadan Campaign Fundraising. In the spirit of Ramadan, and in following the footsteps of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), caring for our neighbors and those in need is a deeply rooted principle in Islam. Ramadan calls us to put our faith into action through mercy, generosity, and service.

Last year, our school community came together to donate $6,173 to Masjid Al-Taqwa, demonstrating the powerful impact of collective giving for those affected by the Altadena fire. This year, we are honored to partner with Humanitarian Day, an organization dedicated to compassion, dignity, and service to the most vulnerable.

Through this partnership, we will help serve the unhoused, as well as Muslim seniors and families in need, with humility and care. Humanitarian Day 2026 will provide essential gift items, eye, dental, and health screenings, along with expanded food distribution to address increasing needs in our community.

This service reminds us that anyone of us could easily be on the other side of the serving line, and that it is only by Allah’s mercy that we are able to help others.

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:

“The merciful will be shown mercy by the Most Merciful. Be merciful to those on the earth, and the One in the heavens will have mercy upon you.” — al-Tirmidhī
