The Islamic Cultural Center of Fresno has three groups created and organized by and for our youth. In addition to the biweekly meetings of each group, they have also gone out to restaurants and fun centers together and volunteered together.
Groups are:
ICCF Kids for ages 4-8
ICCF Youth for ages 9-14
ICCF Young Adults for ages 15-25
ICCF Young Adults
This group meets every other Friday at 6:00PM. A topic leader is chosen the meeting before and a subject of interest for the group is discussed. Topics previously discussed and debated are: moral relativism, gender roles, peer pressure, waste and responsible use, and many more. The discussions are lively and everyone has a chance to participate. All perspectives and comments are welcome and respected.
ICCF Kids and ICCF Youth
The young ICCF community meets every other Friday at 6:00PM. They first are taught a lesson about religion, manners, friendship, and many other great topics, and then have an activity together (games, movies, arts & crafts, video game competitions, etc.)
