Akh Foundation

The Muslim community of the Seattle area has grown rapidly over the last 10 years. Many places of worship have arisen to serve us spiritually. But we still lack other places dedicated to meeting the community?s diverse needs. AKF Foundation creates those spaces by securing facilities to host community life and house service providers for free or reduced rent. These buildings serve as social hubs with activities and events, while their tenants connect local Muslims with services and resources. Community needs include legal advocacy, housing assistance, mental health referrals, financial advising, and much more. Bringing the community and those who support it together in the same space enhances community care, cohesion, vibrancy, and success.
