WELCOME TO SILWAD UNITED COMMUNITY CENTER


Ahlan wa Sahlan. An ancient phrase rooted in centuries of history and tradition, it denotes, and strives to be, the physical embodiment of 'Welcome'. It symbolizes the assurance that our guests are our greatest treasures, making them feel welcomed and protected. This ranks highest on our list of priorities. Indeed, our guests are received and treated like our closest of kin, a trait deeply ingrained in our culture, and one that we seek to sustain and preserve for ages to come, both through practice and philosophy.

HOW WE WORK


The first step of our contribution to society is the acknowledgment of the constant nature of change, especially when it comes to a continuously expanding community. The center too has to recognize these changes, and seek to adapt and evolve in order to keep its work relevant and beneficial.
At Silwad United Community Center, we firmly believe in adhering to the core values and principles with which the center was established. We constantly seek to foster a sense of purpose and identity in our members through commitment to these values, nurturing a sense of responsibility that helps cultivate a close knit, progressive community.
