ISCJ community has embarked on an exciting project to expand the full time school and the weekend school on 17.5 acres of land which ICSJ acquired in the last 35 years of its establishment.
The project once completed would have expanded the footprint of ISCJ by 2 additional entrances and exits, 17 classrooms, auditorium, gymnasium, banquet hall to seat 400, a parking facility for 700 cars, expansion of current mosque to accommodate additional 500. We also intend to provide an upgraded and comprehensive burial preparation, build an office building for halal businesses, and be a model community for Muslims and non Muslims alike.
The planning, design and approval of this project took approximately 12 years, Construction for this exciting project started in June of 2009 and since then we have added two entrances and exits, we have completed all foundation work including sewage, plumbing and electrical, steel frame of 17 classrooms have been raised above the ground.
At this time we are asking you to donate generously. This is an iconic project and demonstrates the ability of a Muslim community to establish an institution which can address the growing needs of Muslims and to uplift and inspire our youth.
Please help expand an institution for Muslims in Central Jersey.
Can we count on you for a donation of:

We understand that the community you are part of requires your support, that is why we are not asking any big amount. Our objective is to reach 500,000 American Muslims who can donate $25 to $100.
