Asalaamu Alaikum!

Alhamdulilah the Masjid facility opened its doors over a decade ago and is in need of maintenance and repairs to carry the community into the next decade.  The project list for 2023 includes:

• Replacing carpets in both prayer areas (Brother's and Sister's side) - $100k ($75k collected as of 7/21)
• Replacing aged Audio/Visual systems - $60k
• Repairing/upgrading the lighting in the main Musullah - $20k
• Repairing/replacing the roof - $90k

Other items should funds permit include:

• Pressure washing the entire outside (focusing on stained areas) - $9-$15k
• Repairing the 2 fiberglass domes - $35k - $45k
• Front parking lot repaving - $25k
• Fence and railing repairs - $10k
• School wheelchair/handicap ramp - $9k
• Landscaping (tree trimming & removal) - $9k

In total, the Masjid would require between $350,000 to $400,000 to complete all of these pending projects.  Alhamdulilah with the help of the community, the Masjid has approximately $60,000 in savings that is dedicated to these repairs.  Your contribution and volunteerism are greatly appreciated!

Al-Farooq Masjid's Feed the Homless Program feeds around 220 to 300 homeless people every other Sunday. Please help us sustain this effort by donating at this link: https://us.mohid.co/ga/atlanta/afm/masjid/online/donation and select the category as 'Feed the Homeless'.

You can also volunteer to help in the distribution by meeting at Al-Farooq Masjid's elevator lobby at 10am to pack around 220-300 lunch boxes for homeless and then head to the parks in downtown Atlanta to distribute the food.

Alhamdulilah, all the programs and initiatives that take place at Al-Farooq Masjid are run by a dedicated team of volunteers that take time out of their busy lives for the sake of Allah. We are always in need of additional volunteers to launch new initiatives and expand on our existing programs. If you would like to get involved in your masjid and earn some reward in the process as well insha'Allah, please signup here: http://bit.ly/afm_volunteer
