Help us build our community & our new Masjid & Centre - together!

Donations are down during the pandemic. Please help fill the gap!
 

✔ Phase 1: Carpets installed and ready for Ramadan, alhamdulillah! Click here to view pictures.

✔ Space for over 250 worshippers & 130 vehicles

✔ Daily prayers are being held indoors with limited capacity, while Friday prayers were being held outdoors before the lockdown

✔ 2 new Multiuse Halls to host programs & activities for families, seniors, youth, children, sisters & brothers

✔ Additional funds required before construction can begin on Phase 2 - new Masjid & Centre facility for needed services & 1100 worshippers

Now, more than ever:

  • Our children & youth need a masjid and centre they can build attachment with and that leaves them with positive values and memories.
  • Our seniors need an accessible masjid and centre where they can worship and socialize.
  • Our sisters deserve a welcoming masjid and centre where they feel included and respected.

Before the pandemic, we had activities happening in four different rental locations and we were at our seventh Friday prayer rental location. Alhamdulillah, with attendance growing at Friday prayers and with many Muslim families and workers moving into our area, the need for a permanent home is acute and widely recognized.
