Muslim Graduation Ceremony - Orange County & Inland Empire

*Please spread the word....we are counting on you!

Asalamu Alaikum Brothers & Sisters,

The Islamic Society of Orange County and the Islamic Center of Riverside are hosting its 8^th Annual Muslim Graduation Ceremony for ALL Muslim graduates in Orange County and the Inland Empire.  This event is free of charge and it is open to all graduate levels (High School, College & Graduate Level).  We are very excited for this event, as it will bring (Insha’Allah) unity amongst the Muslims in Orange County as well as Riverside County.

Last year Orange County hosted its first annual graduation ceremony, hosted by Islamic Institute of Orange County, while the Islamic Center of Riverside hosted its 7^th annual ceremony.  This year, we decided to combine the two counties and create one large event to honor all of the graduates. 

We will be offering over $16,000 dollars in scholarships to the graduates this year.

We have Applications to distribute to all the graduates so they are able to register for the ceremony.

If you are graduating this year from High School, College or Grad School and are interested in being recognized on stage as a Muslim graduate, please email usislamicfoundation@gmail.com  for more information.
