Donate food to local Muslim Canadians in need

With the rising cost of living and increased hardships that local Muslim Canadians are facing, the IIT has partnered with the Muslim Welfare Centre to create an additional avenue of food donations.

You are invited to bring a non-perishable food item every time you visit the IIT and drop it in the barrel located between the entrance doors on the South side.

The Islamic Institute of Toronto offers a wide variety of online courses taught by qualified scholars, most of which are free. We also have reliable religious answers, podcasts, and an active YouTube channel.
