ALHUDA FOUNDATION INC

What ALHUDA FOUNDATION INC does

Alhuda Foundation Inc is a 501(c)(3) non-profit Islamic center (also known as Al Huda Foundation or Alhuda Islamic Center of Indiana — AICI) operating since 2002 from its campus at 12213 Lantern Road in Fishers, Indiana. It positions itself as the largest Muslim congregation in the State of Indiana and serves Muslim communities across Fishers, Carmel, Noblesville, North Indianapolis, and Geist. The organization provides daily and Friday Jummah prayers, Ramadan Taraweeh, and a comprehensive slate of community services including a three-tiered Quran Program (Nooraniyah Beginners, Qira'a with Tajweed, and Hifdth memorization), complete funeral and burial coordination, a food pantry, and the Imani Aid financial assistance program for needy Muslims.

Its underlying "platform" is a community service infrastructure rather than a technology product: it includes a full-time affiliated Islamic school (Eman Schools at 11965 Allisonville Rd), a gymnasium and event hall available for rental, a 70+ member Muslim-owned business directory, and a layered youth and family programming stack (Taekwondo, ESTEEM prosperity groups, Sisters Badminton/Pickleball, Mindful Mamas, Saturday School for Special Needs, halaqas, and Heroes in Islam). The organization also runs an active interfaith program including open houses, mosque tours, food drives with Gleaners Food Pantry, and blood drives.

The business model is non-profit subscription-and-donation based. Revenue streams include annual memberships ($360/family, $200/individual), recurring Quran class fees ($80-$150 per family per 8-week session), monthly youth program fees ($20/participant for Heroes in Islam), facility rental income, and donations accepted via check, Zelle, and in-person contributions. Monthly operating expenses are disclosed at approximately $30,000 (including ~$16,000 in salaries, utilities, maintenance, insurance, and Quran education), with additional Ramadan surge costs. Leadership is provided by a credentialed clergy team (Imam Dr. Nasser Karimian, Director of Islamic Education Sheikh Hamidullah Qeyam, Youth Director Ustadh Umair Lasania) and a Board of Directors led by President Moayyed Moallem. Distribution is exclusively in-person at the Fishers campus, with marketing via website, email newsletters, events, and word-of-mouth within the local Muslim community.
