 Did Your Know? 
    • The Muslim community in Ottawa-Gatineau numbers between 60,000 and 80,000 and continues to grow 
    • As the community ages, the need for appropriate burial services also increases 
    • Muslims must currently rely on commercial operators for burial services, many of whom have limited available burial plots 
    • Most commercial operators do not provide Muslim services, making it difficult to observe Islamic rights of burial
    • Simple commercial burial services can be very expensive 
    • There is a distinct need for a community cemetery which provides Muslim burial services at a modest cost.

Your help is Needed
 In order to develop a project of this scale, significant financial resources are required. While the cemetery will operate on a cost-recovery basis, substantial funds are required for the development of the cemetery site. We already  have the land- we need your help now to make the site operational.   Need More Information?  www.muslimcemetery.ca
