Committees
Operational committees are the driving force that keeps Muslim Space in motion and our community active and engaged. The committees draw together people with different expertise to share information and coordinate actions. Each committee offers flexible time commitments and responsibilities as well as support and guidance from the Board of Directors and the Scholar Advisory Board.
ISLAMIC ENRICHMENT
This committee coordinates and arranges for all educational and Islamic programming such as workshops and classes, congregational prayers, hosting guest lecturers, Quran discussion groups and more. The committee relies on the Scholar Advisory Board but encourages free thought in its activities.
SOCIAL & RECREATION
Developing community strength and unity isn't limited to knowledge-based programs. This committee coordinates social and recreational programs in order to cultivate a strong connection between members of the community while also building a sense of fluidity in all aspects of one's life.

It creates opportunities to address the various needs of the community, both inner and city-wide as well as civic and spiritual.
FINANCE & FUNDRAISING
Financial transparency, accountability and fiscal sustainability are the mechanisms to establish community confidence of an organization. This committee is entrusted with developing creative fundraising efforts that are unique, resourceful and collaborative.
