What EnviroMuslims does

EnviroMuslims is a Canadian nonprofit organization founded in 2019 that delivers faith-based environmental education and programming to the Canadian Muslim community. Its mission is to inspire Muslim Canadians to align Islamic principles with environmental stewardship, reconnecting Muslims with nature across where they live, work, play, and pray. The organization serves Canadian mosques, Islamic charities, non-profits, youth groups, and individual Canadian Muslims — including environmental professionals, students, and families.

EnviroMuslims operates a portfolio of six core community programs: Our Climate, Our Stories (an e-book amplifying diverse youth voices on climate change); Sustainable Islamic Finance in Canada (a 2024-2027 multi-phase initiative with Ummah for Earth Alliance and the Global Ethical Finance Initiative targeting the Canadian Islamic finance sector on responsible investment); Greening Canadian Mosques (a mosque operational sustainability program delivered with Faith and the Common Good); Bootcamp (a free organizational sustainability program sponsored by Greenpeace MENA); Eco-Ramadan Challenge (an annual Ramadan environmental action campaign launched in 2020); and Green Ambassadors (a recognition campaign celebrating Canadian Muslim environmental leaders). The organization has no proprietary technology stack; its offerings are content, workshops, community events, and downloadable resources delivered through a standard Webflow website and direct community engagement.

EnviroMuslims is funded primarily through grants and program sponsorships rather than commercial revenue. The Bootcamp is fully sponsored by Greenpeace MENA; Our Climate, Our Stories was funded by the Rising Youth Grant via TakingItGlobal; and the Sustainable Islamic Finance initiative is delivered in partnership with Ummah for Earth Alliance and GEFI. All programs are offered free of charge to participants. The organization operates with a small core team (1-10 employees including Co-Founder/Director Saba Khan, Director of Climate Programs Areej Riaz, Project Coordinators, and Team Leads), supplemented by advisors and regional team members in Saskatchewan. It is co-founder-led with no parent organization, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed institutional investment or equity structure.

Direct peers

• Green Muslims: A US-based nonprofit that mobilizes Muslim communities around environmental stewardship through education, advocacy, and community programming. The most directly comparable mission to EnviroMuslims, differing only by geography and founding era.
• Faith and the Common Good: Canadian interfaith nonprofit that supports faith communities in greening their facilities and operations. Direct programming partner of EnviroMuslims on the Greening Canadian Mosques initiative and a near-clone on environmental engagement of religious buildings.
• GreenFaith: International interfaith environmental organization that mobilizes religious communities for climate action. Closely comparable in mission to integrate faith identity with environmental programming, though broader across faith traditions.
• Ummah for Earth Alliance: Global Muslim-led environmental coalition providing frameworks and advocacy on Islamic environmental ethics. Direct partner on EnviroMuslims' Sustainable Islamic Finance initiative and overlaps on mobilizing faith communities around climate action.

Regional players

• Aga Khan Foundation Canada: Canadian branch of the Aga Khan Development Network running community development programs including environmental sustainability for Muslim communities in Canada and abroad. Comparable in faith-aligned community programming scope and Canadian Muslim audience reach.
• Islamic Relief Canada: Canadian branch of a global Muslim humanitarian and development NGO with growing climate/environmental programming. Operates in the same Canadian Muslim community but focuses on humanitarian aid, food security, and disaster response with environmental work as an adjacent pillar.

Broad incumbents

• Greenpeace Canada: Canadian arm of Greenpeace, a global environmental advocacy organization. Greenpeace MENA is the primary sponsor of EnviroMuslims' Bootcamp; overlaps on environmental activism but operates at much larger scale and broader scope.
• WWF-Canada: Canadian arm of World Wildlife Fund, a major mainstream environmental NGO that provides foreword endorsement to EnviroMuslims. Overlaps on environmental advocacy and conservation in Canada but does not specialize in faith-based community programming.
• Nature Canada: Canadian conservation NGO that has endorsed EnviroMuslims' Our Climate, Our Stories e-book. Operates in adjacent nature conservation and advocacy space without a faith-based community specialization.
• David Suzuki Foundation: Canadian environmental NGO focused on climate, biodiversity, and sustainability advocacy. Has endorsed EnviroMuslims' e-book; operates broadly in the same environmental advocacy space but without a faith-community specialization.
