YML Friday Meals

Bringing our community together through shared meals and hospitality every Friday after Jummah prayers.

Community members sharing a meal together

Building Community Through Food

Every Friday, the incredible women and mothers of our community come together to prepare fresh, homemade meals with love and care. These meals are thoughtfully cooked and distributed to members of the homeless community, offering not just nourishment, but dignity, warmth, and a reminder that they are seen and valued.

This effort is more than food—it is an act of mercy, service, and collective responsibility. Through small but consistent actions, our families are living the values we hope to instill in our children: compassion, generosity, and service to humanity.

Together, youth and parents are turning inspiration into action—one meal, one smile, and one Friday at a time.
