“The Night of Destiny is better than a thousand months. The angels and the Spirit descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter. Peace it is until the emergence of dawn.” [Quran 97: 3-5]

One thousand months is 83 years, longer than the average lifespan.

Imagine performing one good deed for more than 83 years!

If you were to give $100.00 in Zakat charity to MCC tonight and it is Laylatul Qadr (Night of Power), you would be rewarded as if you gave $3 million dollars.

Right now, we’ve collected less than half of the amount of Zakat we need to meet the needs of our local Muslim community in the coming year.

Each day, the demand for our Zakat programs continues to grow. We average four requests for assistance daily.

Many in the East Bay community suffer silently from illnesses, abuse, abandonment, disabilities, sicknesses, loss of work, and other big life changes.

Your Zakat donation is a helping hand to your neighbor in the East Bay in their time of need. They often have no one else to turn to except Allah and their sisters and brothers in the Ummah.
 
Be the means to help your local neighbor.
 
May God send someone just as helpful as you in your time of need. Allah Humma Ameen (O Allah, hear this prayer).

In these blessed last waning days of Ramadan, please help us serve our community by making a Zakat contribution online now or through other means.

In the past year, MCC has:

- assisted more than 600 families with rent
- staved off 150 evictions
- impacted 700 children with food and shelter
- assisted 500 refugees transition to their new life
- delivered more than 3,000 boxes of diapers
- delivered more than 10,000 pounds of halal meat

The core of the MCC zakat program is rental assistance.

In the past year, we’ve supported hundreds of local families, many facing evictions, with rental assistance. Supplementing their rent for a month or two gives families the breathing room needed, to tackle challenging circumstances such as unexpected job losses or illnesses. Our screening process ensures that financial assistance goes towards local families most in need, while always protecting the privacy of all who are gifted Zakat.
