What our community has already achieved
When we come together, change happens. Here's proof.
Advocated for Eid as a recognized holiday
WMCA advocated for the recognition of Eid as an important religious holiday in Wisconsin. This effort supports religious inclusion by encouraging schools, workplaces, and public institutions to acknowledge Eid and better accommodate Muslim students, families, and workers while promoting understanding of religious diversity across the state. See the resolution here: AJR134
Increased Muslim voter turnout by 34% in the last election cycle
Through targeted education, registration drives, and community organizing, we mobilized thousands of first-time and returning voters.
