    Building collaboration using the community collaboration initiative model: A case study of Muslim-led nonprofits
    (Taylor & Francis, 2023) Siddiqui, Shariq; Wasif, Rafeel; Samad, Abdul; Lilly Family School of Philanthropy
    This case study examines three nonprofit leaders’ (Shariq Siddiqui, Roohi Younus and Dilnaz Waraich) attempt to bring together Muslim nonprofit leaders and help them build meaningful collaborations. They kickstarted the Community Collaboration Initiative (CCI), an initiative that uses third-party facilitation to build collaboration among Muslim nonprofit organizations and to educate foundations and donors about the challenges Muslim organizations face in the United States. It serves as an educational resource to examine (1) the collaboration process, (2) trust-building during collaboration, and (3) the challenges of building collaboration. This case study also provides a resource needed to make Muslim-American organizations more visible in nonprofit and public affairs courses, as well as introduce culturally competent funding for nonprofit organizations that is relevant to students planning to work in foundations and related areas.

    Campus and community connections: The evolving IUPUI Common Theme Project
    (Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities http://www.cumuonline.org/journal/mujAbstracts.aspx, 2013) Hanna, Kathleen A.
    In 2009, IUPUI launched the Common Theme Project, designed to “promote campus unity, conversation, and collaboration on timely issues that connect IUPUI to central Indiana and the world.” This paper briefly discusses the evolution of the Common Theme Project, from its roots as a freshman common reader to the current campus focus on social entrepreneurship, strategies that increased campus and community interest, and our goal to move from “project” status to a campus initiative that will enhance IUPUI’s commitment to outreach and engagement.
