Taraweeh in Columbia Heights 2018
Donation protected
This Ramadan, we want to organize a community Taraweeh Prayer service that's convenient and accessible to those living in Washington, DC.
After a long day of fasting, it can be difficult to attend late night Taraweeh prayers. This is even harder for DC residents who rely on public transportation to get around. Last Ramadan, a group of community members with Yaro Collective organized Taraweeh Prayers in Columbia Heights. It was the first time and Alhamdulillah a great success!
This year, your support will help Yaro Collective build upon that success. In addition to Taraweeh prayers, we provide a platform for community members to give short khatirahs each night. We will be hosting qiyams throughout Ramadan to provide additional opportunities for prayer, reflection, and community-building.
Suggested Donation:
No amount is too small so please give whatever you can.
If interested you can:
- Sponsor one night of Taraweeh for $70
- Sponsor one night of Qiyam for $350
Insha'Allah these funds will be used to cover the cost of space rental, building security and supplies (prayer rugs etc).
Prayer Details & Location:
Location: St. Stephen and the Incarnation Episcopal Church
1525 Newton St. NW
Washington, DC 20010
Closest Metro: Columbia Heights
Mondays through Thursdays throughout Ramadan. Prayer begins promptly with Isha at ~10:00 pm and ends at 11:00 pm
