Endowment Fund

The ISCJ Endowment Fund is a pool of gifted assets invested to generate recurring income — permanently funding the mission of our mosque and community for generations to come.

Vision

$10 Million Goal

Our mission is to build a $10 million endowment by collecting, investing, and growing funds through halal investment vehicles — preserving principal while seeking modest 5–8% returns to spend on Masjid operations.

What It Is

Income-Producing Assets

An endowment fund is a pool of money gifted to an institution. The assets — such as mutual funds, rental properties, and investments — generate recurring income that is spent on furthering the mission of ISCJ, while the principal is preserved and grown.

Benefits

Why It Matters

  • Financial strength and long-term self-funding for ISCJ
  • Reduced reliance on annual fundraising campaigns
