EXTREME MAKEOVER
Youth & Dawah Center Edition

MAS Youth Memphis and the Muslim Society of Memphis sponsored a remodeling of the Memphis Youth and Dawah Center on Saturday August 8, 2009 and Saturday August 15, 2009. This effort was youth-led and conducted. The youth painted murals and designs in the Youth Center on the first weekend. On the second weekend, the youth installed new flooring (laminate flooring) guided by Br. Khaled Hamdeh. The brothers and sisters of MAS Youth Memphis were able to accomplish this feat within 8 hours, MashAllah, and the brothers held the last game night before Ramadhan to celebrate this accomplishment. The new floor is ideally suited to a high-use youth center- environment—it is scratch- and water-resistant and does not require a great deal of maintenance.

MAS Youth Memphis is hosting many activities in Ramadhan—volunteering at the weekly iftars at Masjid as-Salam; volunteering at community fundraisers; participating in a local soup kitchen; visting the elderly Muslims of Memphis; Ramadhan Meat Drive; and Islamic Jeopardy.
