ISF's $25,000 Matching Fund

Each year, we rely upon our dedicated supporters, like you, to help us reach our annual banquet goal. This year, to give us a boost in helping meet our overall target, we have a generous donor willing to match every gift up to $25,000. This is a special opportunity to double your impact! Do not miss your chance to increase and maximize your gift size, contributing to our continued success and impact on the American Muslim community.

In addition to our fantastic keynote speaker, Amna Nawaz, host Yasmin Elhady, and ISF Alumni panelists, Lila Hassan, Omar Shakir, Nicole Fauster, and Ruwa Romman, we will announce the winners of this year's film grant application.
