Amanat Solanki is the epitome of a “social entrepreneur.” In that a social entrepreneur is defined as someone who, “achieves large scale, systemic, and sustainable social change through a new invention or a different approach.” Over the past ten years, with the creation of Mission20, Amanat has accomplished just that. His organization has been involved in several projects in the areas of community development, education, health, and emergency fundraisers.

It has been a privilege to be associated with such an exceptional organization for the past 10 years and I am extremely honored to be the Patron of the Mission20. I have learned many valuable things over the years that has helped me grow personally as a Manager and assisted me in organizing various events for the community. On the occasion of Mission20’s 10th anniversary, I wish to thank Mr. Amanat Solanki (Founder & Chairman) for his vision and perfect execution of his dreams into reality and for playing a significant role in the development of the organization. I would extend my congratulatory to the three groups of people who played an important role in the development of Mission20.
First – to the group of students who believed and acted upon an idea that such an association would be practical to promote and serve the community in various fields (Mainly- Sports, Education, Environment, Helping underprivileged society etc) in the state of Qatar/Internationally.
Second – to the group of young leaders and members who expanded the original vision of the organization by offering exciting new activities for supporting underprivileged workers and taking care of the issues related to them.
Third – to the group of future leaders who will continue to emerge and nurture the development of Mission20. Over the past years we have seen many changes and we expect that the years to come will be no different.
Please consider joining Mission20, if you are not a member. If you are already a member, become an active and involved one. You will be amazed by experience that will be gained from this prodigious organization.

It gives me great pleasure to share a message to celebrate this auspicious occasion. On behalf of the Volunteer Program of Reach Out To Asia, I extend my heartfelt congratulations for the 10 th Anniversary of Mission20. It is quite an achievement to persevere at any initiative for an entire decade, but to do so for such an altruistic and selfless cause is particularly admirable and noteworthy. As you know, Reach Out To Asia (ROTA) is a non-profit organization launched in December 2005 in Doha, Qatar, by Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani.
Operating under the auspices of the Qatar Foundation, ROTA is committed to providing high quality and relevant primary and secondary education, encouraging relationships among communities, creating safe learning environments and restoring education in crisis affected areas across Asia and around the world. ROTA envisions a world, where all young people have access to the education they need in order for them to realize their full potential and shape the development of their communities. As such, ROTA and Mission20 share similar visions wherein both our respective organizations seek to serve and educate the most vulnerable members of communities around the world through volunteering and furthering our “duty to humanity”.
Here at ROTA, we strongly believe in the power of volunteers to achieve sustainable impact in the development of communities and make a truly positive difference in the world. As the American cultural anthropologist Margaret Mead said: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” It is with that thought in mind that I lend my full support to Mission20 to continue onwards and upwards to even greater heights over the next ten years. Amanat, you have always added great value to all the ROTA international volunteer trips and activities you have participated in and we thank you for your committed and tireless service. We wish you all the best in your future endeavour.

Mission20’s entrepreneurial efforts and event management skills has channeled to noble and charitable causes and it’s setting a role for other youth organizations and individuals. The energy and zest of the team shows their passion for this mission while they resonate with the people who they wish to help through their activities. An organization with such integrity requires the community’s support to achieve their goals and objectives and continue to do good.

I had the good fortune of accompanying Amanat on a volunteer trip to Bangladesh were we helped school children in a poor part of the country. Upon returning from our humanitarian trip, He immediately started a successful fundraising campaign to raise funds for building more schools in that country. This is initiative is consistent with other similar activities that Amanat has led. He always has a passion for any activity he undertakes and is expected to perform at levels beyond his peers.

An organization that Amanat’s founded is a self income generating organization that supports humanitarian causes world wide, that’s the place I see Mission20 hold in the future. I’ve been engaged in most of their fundraisers, envisioning is one thing, carrying it out in action is another, I think its is because of the way they build communities and work in partnership with people, they don’t try do it alone.

I first met Mr. Solanki with the launch of our inaugural ROTA-CNAQ Volunteer Trip to Bangladesh to teach young children in the rural non-formal schools near Cox’s Bazar. Upon return from the volunteer trip, Mr. Solanki spoke with me about his desires to create a fundraising campaign in an effort to raise money to build additional schools for those children. He drafted an action plan with goals, activities, budget and deadlines. He was able to generate interest and enthusiasm among his peers and organized a group fellow volunteer. He is a youth leader who is here to share and inspire others by his actions. He exemplifies “global citizenship” and continues to promote and motivate other youth to action and volunteerism.

Amanat is extremely bright and energetic young man, who does all what is required of him. As a student, his class work and attendance record were exemplary and his grade speaks for itself. He enjoyed the company of many friends, which allows him to work very well with others. As a social justice advocate, He founded the Mission20 group, which is seen regularly on campus, raising money for the less fortunate. Even though he was holding the president’s position, he still managed to do well in his studies.

I’ve known Amanat the last five years and was involved with him in various projects. I have always seen him blooming with new ideas and engrossed in carrying them out, which is probably the very reason M20 is progressing. I trust the mind-set behind this organization and also their intentions. It is a great inspiration for people cause the world needs more like them to accomplish such deeds.

I am meeting Amanat Solanki once in a while to gain inspiration and give something back to the best of my ability. I strongly believe if Mission20 makes a business process then all the charitable goals will become more realistic, achievable, self sponsored & most importantly sustainable. I am certain M20 will become a leading charitable institution in Qatar that will have a number branches in other countries. Each member of Mission20 will have a happier and healthier lifestyle because of the support and prayers from the people that have received help from M20.

Amanat was part of the nationwide campaign under the Qatar Red Crescent for Syria and a project that raised funds for relief in Bangladesh. Though he was busy supporting these fundraising and awareness campaigns, he was still able to fulfill his duty as a student. He was able to multitask well and surpassed all of my expectations. He is a true professional and dedicated to the work that he does. In any workplace that he will be in, he will surely make a valuable contribution.
