A HUMBLE REQUEST FROM OUR TEACHERS
At CelebrateMercy, Ramadan is the time to raise funds to support all our programs and initiatives for the coming year, including new programs for youth and adults about the life and character of the Prophet ﷺ. A successful fundraising campaign during Ramadan will lead to a successful year of new programs and projects.
We are still far from our fundraising objective. Before the end of Ramadan, we have an urgent need for your help to attain our goal.
