The Foundation was formed in Australia in 2002, just after Professor Cosan passed away. Since then, the Foundation has been an advocate for many disadvantaged communities and provided financial, social, psychological and spiritual support for the implementation of various humanitarian projects. Our overarching goal is to focus on social justice in society and address the physical, material, social, cultural, psychological and spiritual needs of needy communities.
We serve with sincerity and invest time, energy and resources in the furthering of social justice, thereby fostering peaceful, prosperous, and just societies. We are dedicated to providing guidance and direction towards addressing the root causes of problems while at all times being solution focused.
We acknowledge that ‘serving the creation for the sake of the Creator’ is a challenging task. It involves commitment, confidence, knowledge, expertise and faith. It requires coordinated efforts of various stakeholders, their collaboration and enthusiasm. This is only achieved by systematic planning and preparation. It is this reason that leads us to our slogan ‘prepares you’. At MEC Foundation, we utilise all our resources to help prepare you for the better.
We see those in real need as those who have rights over Qurbani and identify those in need, specifically in the areas of distribution, with help from local caretakers (community members).
We distribute the Qurbans to those in real need through the awareness of the worship and the efforts of our volunteers.
The slaughtering process is conducted with the control of a veterinarian, in a sterile space, with professional butchers. The meats are stored in refrigerated storage rooms and are distributed in packages.
The Qurbans are distributed to those in real need through pre-organized coupons distributed to those in real need. We pass on the Qurbans to those in need with respect and by saying “This is a gift from the Muslims of the world!”

Qurban is a worship that has become a global custom. In separating it from beliefs and aims against tawhid and any other negative associations; we aim to remind you that it is a worship that contains at its essence submission, excellence and generosity, brings closer the creation to Allah, people to one-another and puts the belief of gaining Allah’s pleasure at the absolute forefront. We aim to spread and increase the worship of Qurban to gain Allah’s pleasure, fulfill the worship perfectly and to spread goodness on the earth from hand to hand and from heart to heart.
We take pride to have the following values: 1. Tolerance: We respect and tolerate the creation for the sake of the Creator; 2. Honesty: We always behave in an honest and moral way; 3. Kindness: We act in a kind manner and show concern for others; 4. Compassion: We are compassionate towards everything around us; 5. Transparency: We encourage openness, communication and accountability; 6. Passion: We are passionate about everything we do; and 7. Faith: Our faith is a strong element of who we are and is a motivating force at all times.
Our mission is to spiritually prepare individuals to provide social, psychological, spiritual and financial support for the accomplishment of projects covering a range of humanitarian initiatives while at the same time honouring the commitment to humanity and philosophy established by Professor Dr. Mahmud Es’ad Cosan, our inspiration.
