About Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN)
Founded in 1997, the Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN) is a community organization rather than an overseas relief charity, working in Chicago and Atlanta on health and wellness, a holistic health center, the arts, and social-justice organizing in marginalized neighborhoods. On roughly $16M in annual revenue, its work is domestic and community-rooted. Note that advocacy and organizing work is generally not Zakat-eligible, so donors designating Zakat should confirm which IMAN programs qualify.
Where they work: United States (Chicago, Atlanta)
