Help The Women's Mosque of America through its second year as we transition from a volunteer-run organization into a permanent institution!


The Women's Mosque of America's 2nd Year of Operations

UPDATE: If you would like to donate after our LaunchGood campaign closes, please visit womensmosque.com/donate to make your contribution.

This Ramadan, The Women's Mosque of America is raising $32,400 to achieve sustainability over our second year. Your donation will allow our small team of volunteers to continue our monthly women-led jumma'as through our second year, as well as hire a part-time office manager so we can begin to transition from a volunteer-run organization into a permanent institution. If we exceed our goal, we will be able to hire a full-time office manager, which will give us time to put on more pop-up jumma'as in other areas of California, plus more co-ed programs & events for men and women this year. Help us uplift the Ummah by empowering the women within!


Our Mission

The Women’s Mosque of America seeks to uplift the Muslim community by empowering women and girls through direct access to Islamic scholarship and leadership opportunities. The Women’s Mosque of America provides a safe and healing space for women to feel welcome, respected, and actively engaged within the Muslim Ummah. It complements existing mosques, offering opportunities for women to grow, learn, and gain inspiration to spread throughout their respective communities.

Currently, The Women’s Mosque of America provides women-led Friday jumma’a services for women and children (including boys 12 and under) once a month in Southern California. In addition, The Women’s Mosque of America provides programming, events, and classes open to both men and women that aim to increase community access to female Muslim scholars and female perspectives on Islamic knowledge and spirituality.


Our Vision

A worldwide Islamic Renaissance shaped by Muslim women's voices, participation, leadership, and scholarship.



How You Can Help 

Over the past year, we have helped over 50+ Muslim women learn how to give khutbahs, call the adthan, and lead salah (prayer) for the first time in their lives. The children that come to The Women's Mosque of America are witnessing a new reality that will shape the future of our Ummah for generations to come. Best of all, our safe space model is making Islam accessible to the American public at a time when interfaith understanding is priceless. If you believe in what we're doing and you want us to continue our work through our second year, please donate generously this Ramadan so that we can keep building our mosque and become a permanent institution. 

Please donate generously today and use the LaunchGood sharing tools above to spread this important message!

Salaam to our 1st week Donors, 

Thank you all for helping us reach our first benchmark of $1,000! 

Alhamdulillah, because of your generosity and care, we're now on the way to reaching our $32,400 Ramadan goal to help The Women's Mosque of America continue for a second year. 

Please help us spread the word by telling your friends and family about what we're trying to accomplish this year - transition from a volunteer-run organization into a permanent institution by hiring a part-time office manager. No donation is too small - every dollar counts! :)

Thank you again, may Allah reward you heavily for your beautiful contribution this Ramadan, and may Allah bless and protect you in this life and the next. Ameen!
