description: Rumah Zakat, a charitable institution, is a proactive provider of charity, enabling  sustainable progress in the lives of needy recipients. This study focused on three  forms of philanthropic zakat assistance: economic empowerment, health care, and  tuition-free education. There were 21 participants—seven from each respective cluster.  Interviewers were employed to elicit participants’ perspectives. Major findings  showed economic empowerment recipients were the poor affected by the earthquake  and the monetary crisis. Zakat helped them re-open their businesses. As they  grew, most felt satisfied and employed jobless individuals. Recipients of health care  with elementary education had a five-year grant of free health care and health education.  Although the service lowered their expenses, some needed extra help with  food. Participants benefitting from either program reported positive impacts on their  income, health, and social lives. Most participants in the tuition-free education were  satisfied with their children's schooling, the extracurricular options, and the chances  for parental involvement in the social engagement. Some stated the charitable  schools emphasized moral education over science; thus, they were concerned about  sufficient preparation for future competitive educational levels. Recipients would  benefit from the charities if three programs were altogether offered. This study suggests  the integrative community development programs should be reviewed for better  services.
