Seeds to Roots

We believe youth need safe spaces to nurture confidence and pride in their identity as Muslims. Meaning, they need spaces and mentors that:

– provide a judgement-free space to discuss and engage
– are open and able to answer their questions and guide their thoughts
– motivate and inspire them to be better one step at a time
– they can ultimately trust

After a successful launch, we’re back with Part 2…
