Overview

Mission

Located in the heart of Fremont the Centerville neighborhood is well known for its diverse community. However, being one of many densely Muslim populated areas in the East Bay an essential void was absent. A spiritual safe haven where one can connect with their creator. Centerville Islamic Center (CIC) hopes to fill the void and to provide the spiritual and educational needs for the Muslims in the Centerville area, Insha'Allah.

What it reported doing in 2024

Community religious service rent expenses

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
