Is it permissible for a group of young men and women to meet for charitable work that necessitates direct interaction and organized discussion within the confines of task and fund distribution?

The mixing between boys and girls, in the current common understanding, is not permissible due to the potential for fitna (temptation/strife) and the grave danger it poses to chastity and integrity. Therefore, any activity that leads to unlawful mixing is forbidden, even if it is for performing religious matters, especially since avoiding prohibitions takes precedence over performing commands. The correct approach is for each gender to carry out the work separately.
