Dr. Amr Khaled is an Egyptian who is transforming the Arab world. Using a train-the-trainer approach (i.e one person trains 100, every person trained trains another 100), he has mobilized hundreds of thousands of Arabs to get involved in community projects and social welfare projects. Just to name one example, he started a programme to fight against drugs. When he started this programme. his ambition was to reach to 5,000 drug users. To date, the programme has reached about 5 million people. Even today, one committed person can make a difference .... provided he knows how to organise other people.
One thing I would be interested in knowing is whether his programme is 'only for Muslims' or whether it crosses religious and cultural divides. If anybody knows, please let me know.
