FUNDRISING FOR EDUCATIONAL EMPOWERMENT

Abstract

Studies on fundraising for education financing have been presented both from the government and from the community. One of the many sources of education cost empowerment that has not been discussed in this paper is the existence of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility). The existence of company funds as a social responsibility to the surrounding community is regulated in the form of CSR funding. However, the limited number of companies means that schools such as madrasas in rural and underdeveloped areas are still far from the reach of CSR. For this reason, the existence of CSR is not studied seriously in this paper. Islam as a religion that is ramhatan lil'alamin since its inception has had the concepts of financing empowerment (including education) by maximizing the empowerment of zakat, infaq, endowments, grants and alms. Various studies have proven that management using modern management can help with education costs. As is done by BAZIS in North Sumatra province which provides scholarships to students at madrasas
