Muslim Community Support Services

Mission MCSS strives to serve and advocate for those lacking sufficient resources to live at a standard considered comfortable in our society. Irrespective of religious views, race or gender, we assist the impoverished, refugees, immigrants, the elderly and disabled, abused women, and other people in need in Austin. Special concern is given to the most vulnerable among these populations, such as, but not limited to, those finding themselves in sudden financial, housing or health related crises, as well as female victims of domestic abuse or abandonmnent. This commitment is rooted in the Quranic and Prophetic teaching that Muslims want for their brothers and sisters what they want for themselves. Read on to see how MCSS contributes to this commitment. Vision We hope those in need within the greater Austin community will recognize MCSS as a resource when they find themselves struggling. We hope others in the community will refer clients to us if they see someone in need. We hope to ensure the long-term sustainability of the organization by consistently evolving, reassessing our community's state and needs, and continually recruiting board members and volunteers that represent the diversity of our community. We also plan to continue fruitful collaborative efforts with other service organizations in Austin. Aside from financial assistance, we hope to expand bridges within the community over time, to allow those who are fortunate to lend not just financial assistance, but inspire others and mentor them towards success.
