Assalam Alaikium
 

In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful. 

All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

May peace and prayers be upon Prophet Muhammad, his family and companions.

Asalaamu alaykum Brothers & Sisters,

During this blessed month of Ramadan, the ICCA is calling upon all community members to increase your support for the masjid and help us meet the needs of our growing community.

Our fundraising theme this Ramadan is Taking Our Community to the Next Level and our goal is $550,000. Alhamdulillah, we have already raised about $70,000 and we are counting on your support to hit our goal, insha Allah.

There are three ways you can help:

  1. Sign up as a monthly donor of $20, $50, $100, $250 or more to help the masjid meet our monthly expenses of approximately $10,000 (teacher and imam salaries, utilities, security, cleaning, etc.)
  2. Donate to help us cover the cost of the Historic Fayette Depot Event Center purchase and advance our other important projects.
  3. Spread the word and encourage other community members to donate! See the attached fundraising letter with a QR code that you can share.

Over the past year, the ICCA has been working to better serve the community and elevate our masjid's services by:

  • Establishing a private school, Crescent Academy, so that young families can raise their children here in a safe, Islamic educational environment.
  • Purchasing the Historic Fayette Depot Train Depot Event Center located next door to the masjid, ensuring essential access to additional parking.
  • Upgrading and renovating the masjid with support from community donors, including the addition of brand new carpet, lighting, and paint.

In the upcoming months and years, insha Allah, the ICCA aims to build upon our recent achievements by:

  • Hiring an Assistant Imam and an Islamic Studies teacher who is a native of the Fayette community and a recent graduate of the University of Medina.
  • Expanding Crescent Academy by enrolling 17 students in the fall, introducing two additional grade levels (2nd and 5th grade), and hiring two more educators.
  • Completing masjid renovations, including the installation of a new fence outdoors and retractable accordion walls to create new classroom spaces.
  • Developing a new recreational facility/school on the donated land near Whitewater Middle School. 
  • Continuing our collaboration with One Ummah and enhancing our youth initiatives to empower the upcoming Muslim generation and foster a vibrant youth community.

Please donate regularly in Ramadan and join us on the 29th of Ramadan for our annual fundraiser, insha Allah. It is time to take our community to the next level and ensure that the Georgia Muslim community south of Atlanta is thriving and growing.

Thank you for your support. Lets take our community to the next level, insha Allah. May Allah (SWT) bless you, your families and our brothers and sisters around the world with a successful Ramadan.

With thanks,

ICCA Board of Trustees
