A PLATFORM FOR MUSLIM YOUTH
This is where our youth gain valuable self-development skills & share a sense of belonging
Learning Begins With Us
Since the inception of the foundation in 2001, Mafiq Foundation grew from one event to over five unique events with enhanced content and offerings over the years. These events were initially organised in the Greater Metro DC-Maryland-Virginia(DMV) area and have slowly grown in popularity far and wide.
With events being conducted virtually, in-parts or in full, students from around the globe get an opportunity to participate in these events.
