About Us

OUR MISSION

The message of Islam has come for all people in all times, commanding us as Muslims to do good in this world that we may secure our place in the next. Today, there is much good that needs to be done. Our mission is to grow the power of the Muslims in the United States to do good by supporting professional and educational excellence for students while enabling them to spread it in marginalized communities. We accomplish this by providing mentorship and networking to talented students from disadvantaged backgrounds and communities with high potential for the growth of Islam.

Our Services

We set up students for academic success by providing mentoring from rising experts in fields relevant to our mentees, tutoring in subjects where they need support, SAT/ACT preparation, and guidance for college applications.
