Community Sponsored Iftar Sign-up
We will hold our community sponsored Iftars this Ramadan on Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays Insha'Allah. 

Six families can sign up to host Iftar on each day. Families can make their own arrangements or if they like we can help with the food order. In addition to the food, there will be a $80 per family/slot ($480 per Iftar) charge to cover paper goods, table covers, dates, water, tea and cleaning charges.
