How one home changed
a community’s future.
The story of Mama Habiba Foundation begins with a deeply personal act of remembrance and generosity. Rather than allowing Mama Habiba’s home to remain only a family memory, her children, grandchildren and close relatives gave it a continuing purpose: a place where worship, learning and compassion could serve others. From that beginning, the endowed home became the foundation for a wider mission of education and community care.
After Mama Habiba passed away, her children endowed her home for Allah’s sake so it could benefit the community. That home became the beginning of Mama Habiba Foundation.
