“I had the pleasure of working with Meymuna for my catering and restaurant ventures, and I can't speak highly enough of her expertise and dedication.

We all want to "save the world." But few of us act on that desire. Witness Meymuna Hussein-Cattan. She IS indeed saving the world — one refugee at a time. Meymuna's many gifts include extraordinary determination, energy and vision. And the willingness to selflessly devote her life to the needs of others. Meymuna developed the concept for The (non-profit) Tiyya Foundation (along with her equally extraordinary mother). As Executive Director/Founder, she has built up the non-profit from a dream into a regionally recognized 501C3. And she accomplished all this through her own grit and hard work.
She has personally served many refugees — moving (yes, getting the moving van and carrying their belongings!) refugees into housing, getting children into school and after care activities, and attending to the myriad of things that a refugee family needs to deal with when joining a new world. Along the way she has garnered dedicated volunteers and a strong Board of Directors. Almost single-handedly she has attracted funding needed to continue to the next step. While Meymuna is able to handle the tactical needs of her clients, she is also able to juggle the strategic needs of her organization and the emotional needs of all those around her. She is strong without being abrasive, she is pliable without being soft. I would recommend that you get to know The Tiyya Foundation and Meymuna Hussein-Cattan, if you want to see true leadership in action.” — Patricia Palleschi, PhD
