D. Checkomatic Withdrawal System
All the activities of ISGH are conducted through the financial support of the members. For stable and advance planningof ISGH activities, a Chechomatic System has been instituted. Once a voluntary pledge is made, the donation is directly drawn from the member's bank account on a monthly basis. As the community services keep expanding, the receipts fall short of the disbursements. Expenses include stall salaries, rent, utilities, property insurance & maintenance, publications, Eid prayer hall rentals and financial assistance to the poor Muslims.

Future plans require that masajid and schools must be constructed in all the zones. Only a conscientious and responsible community can meet the present commitment and face the future challenges through financial support and volunteer work.
