AsSalaamu’alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Two years ago, we embarked on an incredible journey together—the MIC Endowment Fund. Alhamdulillah, through your support and generosity, the fund now stands at an impressive $300,000! This milestone is a testament to the strength of our community’s commitment to building a brighter future.

Our vision is ambitious: $10 million in 20 years. This will ensure a perpetual source of support for the programs and services that enrich our lives and strengthen our deen. But we can’t achieve this without your continued contributions and duas.

As we start this year in 2025, we humbly invite you to make a donation to the MIC Endowment Fund. Your contribution—no matter the size—helps secure our future and provides an opportunity to earn ongoing rewards (Sadaqah Jariyah).

Please write your check or donate online (see below), and be part of this noble effort to leave a lasting legacy for generations to come.

Donate to the MIC Endowment Fund Here: https://us.mohid.co/tn/memphis/micc/masjid/online/donation/31

Jazakum Allahu Khairan for your generosity, and may Allah (SWT) bless you and your family abundantly for your support. Together, we can make this dream a reality, Insha’Allah.

With gratitude and duas,

The Memphis Islamic Center Team
