  • The Golden Bee Hive (G.B.H.P) project was an idea developed by the current chairmen of Bayt Al-Zakat International, Mr. Adib Marabani. Mr Marabani arrived in Australia in 1951. With the struggles of settling in a foreign country, and in collaboration with four other Lebanese Muslim migrants, he began what would become a lifetime of serving the Australian Muslim community. During his time in Australia, he has built relationships that have assisted the establishment of Bayt Al-Zakat International in 1984. Bayt Al-Zakat runs several programs of which include Orphan sponsorship, and the Adahi project which involves the distribution of food to the needy.

  • Mr. Adib Marabani's next goal for Bayt Al-Zakat is to work with the Muslim community in order to develop a social entrepreneur network with the goal of building community confidence and harnessing the capabilities of individuals in the Australian Muslim community.
