Abstract

This paper discusses the development model of Sekolah Juara Rumah Zakat based on educational philanthropy funds in the perspective of Islamic Education Economics. Educational philanthropy through zakat, infaq, sadaqah, waqf, and donations plays an important role in supporting access to quality education for underprivileged communities in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to analyze the concept of educational philanthropy, the school development model implemented by Rumah Zakat through Sekolah Juara, and its effectiveness in improving educational quality and student character. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method by collecting data from books, journals, articles, and official documents. The results show that Sekolah Juara applies a holistic education model integrating academic learning, Islamic character education, leadership, and social development. Supported by philanthropy-based funding, Sekolah Juara provides free and quality education for students from low-income families. The program has positive impacts on students’ academic achievement, discipline, social awareness, and family welfare. In conclusion, the Sekolah Juara model demonstrates that educational philanthropy can become an effective solution for improving educational access, social empowerment, and character building in society.
