More Info: Click here
Over the last one year, the utilization of the Waverly Grand Mosque has increased significantly. With so many recurring sports activities, classes, halaqas, dinners, events, meetings etc., the efforts required to keep the mosque clean has doubled. The current caretaker works only 20 hours a week. Accordingly, the MIA EC has decided to hire another part-time caretaker in order to fully meet all the cleaning and maintenance requirements of the mosque. Please find attached the Job posting details. All interested are encouraged to apply.

The MIA EC is holding an open “Muslim Culture Day” on May 20. The purpose of this event is to educate members of our community and the public at large on the rich and diverse cultural heritage of the Muslims. Each selected Muslim cultures will have a corner where their cultural fine arts, dresses, food, unique traditional items etc will be in display. In addition, historical facts and civilizational contributions will be presented. The MIA EC is looking for volunteers representing our various Muslim cultures to come forward and assist in planning and preparing for this event.
Contact Info: To participate on behalf of your cultural group please contact osaed.khan@miaonline.org
