The masjid depends on your donations to cover running costs, and to be able to provide important programs and services to the community.
Please come out and bring the whole family! Your support is very important to us! If you can not attend the fundraiser, you can still make an online donation here.

There will be a Ramadan Bazaar tomorrow in the gymnasium from 1pm to 11pm. There will be lots of goodies on sale, with 50+ amazing vendors! Please visit with your family.

Ladies Elevator Project
ICC is raising funds for a new elevator project. The ICC does not have a functional elevator that reaches all three floors, especially the ladies' mezzanine, and it is a growing need for our community. Please donate generously!

Marriages and Funerals at ICC
The Islamic Centre of Cambridge facilitates both marriages and funerals for the community. Please visit the office, or call 519-740-6855 for details.
ICC Funeral Financial Support Services
ICC is now offering a full funeral financial support program. This program will help members of our community cover the high cost of funerals.
Today, funeral costs between $6000-$7000, which can be very difficult for families to pay. The FFSS program allows the community to come together and help each other cover this cost.
Please visit our website for forms, and full details on how the program works. Application packages are also available at the office.
