Asalamualaikum,
The township has officially issued the building permit, and we will be going with GHS Construction as the general contractor. We are looking to schedule a ground breaking date inshallah.
By the will of Allah (swt), the township has agreed to issue construction permit to Khair Center contingent on selection of a contractor and completion of a 3rd party electrical review. The Khair team had a pre-bid meeting with several contractors on Nov 6th. Construction bids from those contractors are due for submission on Nov 14. A review of submitted bids will be undertaken by the Khair team and it is expected that the contractor will be finalized by the end of November based on the best overall bid.
Assalamu alaikum,
As of Sep 17, 2020, the community has generously donated $170,000 towards the construction fund for Khair Center. Additionally, Khair team applied for, and received a grant of $90,000 to be used towards construction costs. The grant money is available to us immediately and as soon as we have ground breaking on the Khair site, we can start the construction process inshaAllah.
The project permit was submitted to Upper Providence Township on Sep 9, 2020. The township can take up to 30 days to review the permit. Insha’Allah, we are hopeful it will get approved and we can break ground soon after to commence construction on our site. Please continue making dua for success of this project and continue donating generously so we can complete phase 1 of this multi-year project plan completed on time.
Please join us for a virtual update on Khair Center construction project. This virtual session will be held on May 9th at 4 pm inshaAllah. Please click here to register for this event. We look forward to your participation.
