03 — Parent support

Make a Date

Make a Date is a parent-support program designed to give parents time together while children participate in a safe, organized activity program.

The concept is simple: support strong families by making it easier for parents to intentionally spend time together.

04 — Community camps & picnics

From a local park day to a full weekend camp.

Our larger community experiences bring families together through food, recreation, outdoor activities, conversation, and shared experiences.

05 — Fundraising with a purpose

Every fundraiser tied to a clear purpose.

Selected community programs may also serve as fundraisers for participating institutions or future Ummah Inc. programming — always connected to an experience that provides value to the community.
