Mentors & VolunteersWho We Are
We encourage mentors and mentees to develop mature Islamic perspectives, which they can then apply to their day lives. Our spiritual retreats and international trips foster remarkable bonds between the youth as they reflect upon their own identities.
We emphasize the consistent effort towards being a high-quality individual, which translates into the quality community we have today. To ensure the well-roundedness of our youth,we strengthen skills such as leadership, teamwork, finance, and debate in addition to Islamic education. We lean on one another for support, upliftment, and courage which is reflected by the service we provide for our local and global communities.
In society where Muslim values don’t align with the culture norm, ARKanum is a community that can help our Muslim youth thrive in this world while stay true to their faith.
