Overview

Mission

The Muslim Women’s Coalition (MWC) is dedicated to building an equitable and inclusive Wisconsin, where diversity is celebrated and all individuals are valued. Our mission is to empower Muslim women and girls through education, leadership, outreach, and wellness programs, helping them reach their fullest potential while creating a positive impact on the broader community.

What it reported doing in 2025

Community outreach and education - a very active speakers bureau regularly trains and educates others across Wisconsin, utilizing presentations, workshops, seminars, panel discussions, exhibitions, webinars and other forums. Audiences include educators, business leaders, law enforcement agencies, healthcare centers, religious establishments, the media and more.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 91% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
