FUNDS URGENTLY NEEDED FOR MASJID EXPANSION PROJECT

The Kawartha Muslim Religious Association is a registered, non-profit, charitable organization representing a large number of Muslims in the Kawartha area including the cities of Peterborough, Lakefield, Bobcaygeon, Lindsay and Cobourg. The KMRA was formed in 1991 with a handful of Muslim families at the time. Alhamdulillah, it now represents a significant Islamic presence in the region as many Muslims from the greater Toronto area have been moving to Peterborough and the surrounding area.

The KMRA was successful to buy a church in 2002 and it became Al-Salaam Mosque. Since then, AL-Salam Mosque has been the only mosque in Peterborough and the surrounding areas.

Alhamdulillah, recently we have purchased a property adjacent to our Mosque for future expansion (776 Parkhill Road West).In order to expand the masjid and accommodate the current Muslim population's religious services in the historic Canadian city of Peterborough, Ontario, there is an urgent need to raise $380,000 to complete the Qard Hasan (benevolent loan), Renovations, and Architect fees after purchasing the adjacent property. We have a total of $300,000 in Qard Hasan and need more $80,000 for Renovations, and Architect fees.
