Over 1400 kids on the waiting list: HELP US RAISE FUNDS FOR OUR STATE-OF-THE-ART ELEMENTARY CAMPUS

Edmonton Islamic Academy has been at the forefront of serving the Muslim community in Canada since building the first Mosque in 1938 when there were only 700 Muslims in Canada. We then went on to build the first Muslim school. With over 1400 children on our waiting list and growing demand, we're venturing to build an even bigger school for our children's future. 

To meet the growing community demand, a new campus is being built exclusively for elementary-aged children.

A History of Firsts: EIA is Rooted in Heritage and Legacy

We have been strengthening the Muslim community since our ancestors laid its foundation with the first mosque in Canada. From the first mosque to the first school in its basement to the first largest Islamic Academy in Edmonton, we made history with our series of first achievements.

Edmonton Islamic Academy's story is one of pioneering spirit and unwavering commitment to our faith and community. Our journey began with the establishment of Canada's first masjid right here in Edmonton – a testament to the vision and determination of our Muslim forebears.

This historic milestone laid the foundation for decades of community building and educational excellence. From those humble beginnings, we've grown into a beacon of Islamic education, continuously pushing boundaries and achieving new firsts. Today, EIA stands as a living legacy of that pioneering spirit, carrying forward the torch of innovation and leadership in Islamic education.

As we launch "The Next First" campaign, we honor this rich history while looking boldly to the future. We're not just an educational institution; we're the launchpad for the next generation of Muslim Canadian leaders who will define the future of this country and inspire beyond our borders.

Why Your Investment is Critical

The challenges facing Muslims in the West are unprecedented. To thrive, our children need more than just education – they need a fortress of identity, faith, and purpose. EIA provides this crucial foundation:

• Rooted Identity: We cultivate a strong sense of Muslim identity that withstands the pressures of Western society.
• Unwavering Faith: Our curriculum strengthens Islamic knowledge and practice, ensuring our children remain steadfast in their beliefs.
• Global Mission: We inspire students to see themselves as part of a larger ummah, with a responsibility to make a positive impact worldwide.

The Cost of Inaction

Failing to invest in institutions like EIA puts our community at risk:

• Erosion of Islamic values in future generations
• Loss of Muslim identity and connection to our heritage
• Decreased representation and influence in Western society

Without strong educational foundations, our children may struggle to navigate the complexities of being Muslim in the West.
