Why Support The ADS?
Annual Conventions
We host conventions annually, bringing together over 1,000 people of all ages for activities, food, seminars, discussions, professional networking, and opportunities to meet new people and connect with familiar faces. Our conventions have been going on for decades thanks to you!
Tawheed Sessions
Curious about our faith and want to learn more? The ADS helps facilitate weekly online lectures hosted by leaders of our faith within our community here in the US. Tawheed sessions are offered for age groups 7-13 & 14-17, parents with young children, newlywed couples, and young adults!
Spiritual Retreats
The ADS CORA team organizes spiritual retreats each year for our young adults to come together and learn about our faith and participate in fun outdoor activities. These retreats are hosted in areas around the country with nice access to nature and safe hospitality for everyone to feel comfortable and secure.
ADYA Getaways
Beginning in 2022, the ADYA has been organizing national 3-day weekend getaways across the country, enabling our young adults to meet up in different cities and participate in fun programs tailored specifically to their age group. Our first ADYA Weekend Getaway was in Los Angeles, and our second one was in Tampa, Florida!
Growth & Education
We are committed to the educational growth of our youth. The ADS Scholarship Committee offers financial scholarships to eligible students to support their academic journeys. Furthermore, we help connect the young adults with mentors and peers through professional networking workshops at the annual convention.
Ladies Auxiliary
The Ladies Auxiliary serves as our support system and is involved in supporting, serving, and nurturing the entire community through various means.
It takes a lead role in helping out with event organization and management, volunteering, and empowering our women and youth to take a step forward through numerous initiatives.
Building Friendships
Our main goal at the ADS is to help foster friendships and meaningful relationships. At the core of every event we host, our intention is to bring our brothers and sisters in faith together, all while spreading love, comradery, and brotherhood/sisterhood throughout our community. Our biggest hope is to create bonds that last a lifetime!
Funeral Services
The ADS works endlessly to facilitate information, options, and guidance for funeral service needs. Local chapters negotiate with cemetery businesses for best deals to acquire group lots, along with providing compassionate, efficient, and rapid communications to help ease the process.
