Our Vision
To have adab (good character), share knowledge, and show love in order to strengthen youth, families, and communities around the world.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide education, wellness, and community programs that preserve the innate good and serve the well-being of children, families, and elders.
Our
Story
A Holistic
approach
Sanad Trust Foundation began with sincere concern in the heart of a father and the dream of a mother for their child’s future and the world he would inherit. Like a seed in the soil, a child’s emotional, intellectual, and spiritual outcome is nourished by their learning environment. This holistic view places the child at the center, with peers, parents, and the community around it.
All of Sanad Trust Foundation’s programs and services are inspired by this comprehensive approach to building up and strengthening children, adults, and elders. Every program and service is intended to complement the other. This perspective is significant and what guides Sanad Trust. We have served hundreds of students, children, and families by providing thousands of hours of unique programs and services.
Our Need
For the past 14 years, Sanad Trust Foundation has patiently, responsibly, and independently strived to build a model of education and institution-building upon the highest standards, which reflects the Light of Allah and the Love of His Beloved Messenger (peace be upon him). We have doubled the number of children, families, and community members we serve as well as the square footage of our leased locations every 3 years! Now, a primary goal of our ‘next-ten years’ agenda is moving into our forever home: A location that would be a hallmark for our community and a flagship destination. It will set the precedent for a national network of education, wellness, and community spaces for Muslims in North America.

& Next
Step
The new Sanad facility will revolutionize how we serve the South Florida Muslim community and establish a national model for inclusive, impactful Islamic centers. This strategically located center will immediately expand our acclaimed K-12 program, increasing educational opportunities for hundreds of students while fostering their social, emotional, and spiritual growth, all within an Islamic environment.
Beyond education, this new home empowers us to transform lives across generations. We’ll double our Sanad Prep enrollment, welcome triple the attendees at community events, and significantly enhance our wellness and counseling services. Importantly, we will finally create a permanent haven for our beloved elders through the Guardian program, ensuring they receive the honor and care they deserve, as commanded in our deen.
Imagine a vibrant hub where Muslim students, professionals, and organizations connect, collaborate, and thrive. Picture conference rooms buzzing with ideas that further our community’s goals, a welcoming coffee shop fostering brotherhood and sisterhood, and a co-working space igniting innovation within an Islamic framework. This is the future we’re building, and your generous support, as sadaqah jariyah, will make it a reality.
Our
Future
Estimated Project Budget
In order to meet the needs of our children and their families as well as give the community the best resources, we are exploring raising $4.7 million in philanthropic support to purchase a facility, renovate it, and fill the gap in the current communal needs.
We Need Your
Heart and Hand
We invite the visionary leaders of our community to join Sanad Trust Foundation in establishing a lasting legacy. Your investment in this sacred endeavor will not only empower our community, but insha’Allah, will illuminate a path for us to establish similar beacons of light across the nation.
By securing this property, we will preserve and strengthen the pioneering Islamic learning and community engagement model that we have already established, ensuring it continues to shine brightly and nurture generations to come.
Your generous support is an investment in the future of our deen and the generations who will carry its torch for the benefit of humanity. Let us together, one child, one family, one community at a time, reimagine the landscape of Islamic life in America.
We at Sanad Trust Foundation are ready to lead this effort, and we humbly request your partnership in bringing this vision to fruition.
