Social Services

A number of committees and partners at MCA provide Social Services to enhance the living conditions of local community members in need of additional support. MCA’s core social service is the collection of Zakat and Sadaqah funds to support people in need of additional support such as those who may be unemployed, homeless, or refugees.

Inclusive Support for All

Through our comprehensive initiatives, we’re making a tangible difference in the lives of individuals and families throughout the Greater Bay Area. But we can’t do it alone. With your support, we can amplify our efforts and reach even more people in need.

Our services are designed to be inclusive and accessible to everyone. We offer language support, accommodations for disabilities, and culturally sensitive programming to ensure we meet the diverse needs of our community. Our programs include:

    • Community Engagement: We actively involve local residents to understand their challenges and needs, tailoring our services accordingly.

    • Food Distribution: We strive to ensure that no one in our community goes hungry by distributing thousands of pounds of food packages to those in need. Through partnerships with organizations like the Support Life Foundation and Second Harvest Food Bank, we make nutritious meals accessible to all.

    • Toy Drives: Our toy drives during the holiday season bring smiles to children’s faces and warmth to families’ hearts. By spreading joy and celebrating together, we’re fostering a sense of unity and belonging within our diverse community.

    • Collaborative Partnerships: We work with local organizations, government agencies, and businesses to maximize our impact and reach within the community.

    • Blood Drives: Our blood drives with the Red Cross are more than just donations; they’re lifelines. By facilitating blood donations, we’re saving lives and supporting the health and wellness of our community members in times of need.

    • Disaster Relief: When disasters strike, we’re there to provide immediate assistance and support. Whether it’s raising funds for fire relief with the Santa Clara Fire Department or organizing special drives for victims of natural disasters, we’re committed to helping our community rebuild and thrive.

    • Advocacy and Awareness: We advocate for systemic change and raise awareness about social issues affecting our community through campaigns and events.

    • Citizen Workshops: In collaboration with CAIR, we offer workshops that make the legalization process accessible to citizens from all backgrounds.

    • Voter Registration: We organize voter registration drives and operate voting centers to benefit the entire community.

    • Community Garden: The produce from our Community Garden is donated to Second Harvest Food Bank, supporting local families. Additionally, Boy Scouts utilize this space for planning and executing their service projects.
