::About Us:: The ISB Youth Group

| History |

Under the guidance of the ISB President, the ISB Youth Committee was established to help develop and direct all youth related activities within the ISB community. The committee formed a youth group with the mission to organize athletic, social, and educational activities for youth of our community spanning Middle School through College age youth and young adults. Those who are in Elementary school and below are catered to by a sister org, Muslim Kids Club.

The Committee is striving to meet the great demands of keeping our Muslim Youth together, and to establish their Muslim identities here in this Western society. It tries to meet those demands by creating regular activities that the youth can attend and enjoy, while developing the taqwa and the strength in their hearts for the dean of Allah. All ideas and suggestions are welcome.

To make these activities inexpensive (or free), please help to support the committee financially, by using the "Donate" button on the Home Page or by sending checks to the Islamic Society of Baltimore, with "Youth Group Donation" in the memo.
