This national honor recognizes those who have volunteered over a 12 month period. Categories range from as young as 5 to lifetime awards. This is a great opportunity for high school students to show consistency and commitment and is a highly recognized honor among ivy league schools and scholarships agencies.
We will use Homebase to log in hours. All ICGC, Rahma, and youth activities will count. You’re doing the work anyways, might as well get recognized.

Islamic Center of Greater Cincinnati in the News

"Until the lion learns how to write, every story will glorify the hunter." - African Proverb
The Islamic Center of Greater Cincinnati (ICGC)’s chair of the board, Shakila T. Ahmad, has been a member of the Muslim Jewish Advisory Council since its inception in 2016. She would like our regional partners to know that “as regional institutions, this collaboration to have a collective voice against hate crimes is critical. I applaud our Ohio Senators, Rob Portman and Sharrod Brown, for their support against hate and helping to pass this act unanimously through the Senate.”
