Help the Islamic Center of Boone NC in the wake of Hurricane

Hurricane Helene has devastated our small mountain town of Boone, NC, and deeply impacted our Muslim brothers and sisters. This once-in-a-lifetime natural disaster has caught our community off guard, leaving many unprepared for the destruction it caused. Many of our members' homes have been completely flooded, and some are still without power or running water. The Red Cross and National Guard have been called in to assist, but the need remains great.

Our Muslim community here is small, and our mosque operates out of a modest 900-square-foot rental space, previously used by other organizations. The nearest halal butcher is a three-hour round trip, but the Islamic Center provides the option for our community to buy halal meat locally. Unfortunately, we lack the resources and infrastructure that larger communities, Mā shāʼ Allāh (ما شاء الله), benefit from in bigger cities.

We are humbly reaching out for your support to help us expand our footprint and strengthen our financial and physical infrastructure. The funds raised will be used to support the Islamic Center of Boone, allowing us to better serve our community both in times of prosperity and during crises. With your help, Insha’Allah, we can build a stronger foundation for whatever challenges may come our way.

Our ultimate goal is to raise enough funds to purchase a building that we can call our own, providing more space for families, especially for our children.
