Overview

Mission

The Mosque Foundation serves the spiritual, religious and communal needs of area Muslims by means of nurturing their faith, upholding their values, and fostering the well-being of the surrounding community through worship, charity, education, outreach, and civic engagement.

What it reported doing in 2025

SUMMER YOUTH CAMP Project Almaerifuhs beneficiaries are young Muslim men and women of color from low income backgrounds. Many have faced discrimination at some point in their lives due to one aspect of their identity. They face challenges on a daily basis just to get by. one of the challenges is the lack of adequate academic support and tools to enable them to become fully engaged and successful citizens.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 85% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
