Our Social Enterprises
Fitrah was known as the "book people," and while that identity still defines us, we've evolved into something much broader. Our social enterprises now play a key role in youth empowerment, and as we've grown, we've found innovative ways to connect with and strengthen our community.
During every shift we have lots of opportunities to step up and do more than what’s expected. That can be arriving early or staying late to support the shift to reach its goals. It can be helping out others on shift if you finish your tasks early. We work on leadership with things like tours, volunteer groups, and speaking at events. But leadership is also doing the little things like noticing we’re out of shipping labels and replacing them without being asked.”
