Build A Masjid - Donate to the Construction of a Mosque
A small Masjid can be built in £4,700 in Bangladesh; £15,000 pays for the same project in Malawi. And the cost is £9,500 in South Punjab, Pakistan. These are figures that HNCO is very keen to publicize. As they are perhaps surprisingly modest to people wishing to donate to build a mosque.
People can choose to make a one-off donation. Or if they are part of a fundraising group, like a school or sponsorship activity they can keep track of donations made until the target has been met, then a commemorative plaque will be placed at the completed mosque and the donors will receive a photo book.

HNCO Work
During many of its global outreach programmes, the HNCO team has identified other areas in the villages where aid is being administered and brought home ideas such as free cataract removal clinics, educational equipment, and sewing machines, to name a few. And, with every project that is completed, the non-profit organisation seeks a new challenge for itself, its supporters and those that require its help.
Recognising that the condition of mosques in many of the places where the team was working were not fit for purpose at best, or beyond repair at worst, the idea for 'Build a Masjid' was born. At the end of August 2020, foundations were laid for the first HNCO-funded mosque in Pakistan; one month later, the main structure was complete. By Spring 2021, the Sudan location was successfully opened and three new Masjid builds were in progress.

Why We Want to Build a Mosque
It is the mosque that serves as the heart of every Muslim community. In some of these villages, the Masjid may well be the only shared community building. As well as being a place to pray, and perform religious ceremonies such as weddings and funerals, the Mosque is a place where food is served, classes are taught and meetings can be held. These are just some of the practical services that the building can be used for.
In fact, the true purpose of building a Mosque is far more significant in any location. In the far reaches of Asia and Africa, where travel and transport is limited to say the least, villagers can spend their whole life in one place, and with little influence from the outside world, the Masjid can be the one constant when it comes to physical property, and a tangible aspect of a person's faith, a place where every member of a family celebrates major milestones and residents of a village can congregate and enjoy a shared space.
