Jumu’ah Tabling for Bay Area Nonprofits

Request for a Bay Area Nonprofit to Table During Friday Jumu’ah Prayers

We believe in providing our congregation with opportunities each Friday to learn about San Francisco Bay Area organizations that empower lives in our community, nation, and the world. See how we do this!

Local nonprofits (headquartered or founded in the Bay Area only or with an affiliate office here) may request a Friday table every six months, except in Ramadan, to bring awareness to an event, fundraiser, or project. MCC will not announce an event at Jumu’ah without the presence of a nonprofit representative.

MCC does not accommodate international or national organizations without a local presence. However, MCC may grant an exception for a national nonprofit addressing an emergency humanitarian crisis. MCC does not positively accommodate guest Khutbah sermons paired with sermons or post‐prayer donation appeals.

The weekly Friday Jumu’ah times are on our prayer page. Please plan to table during all services and to arrive at least 15 minutes before the start of the first service for setup. MCC will provide one 6-foot rectangular table set in the foyer area. The nonprofit may put out a donation box and place a credit-swiping option for donations while tabling at MCC.

Nonprofits that will be tabling are blocked off on the MCC Master Calendar. Please check for available Fridays before submitting your request.

Check each box on this checklist to confirm a complete application and that you agree to abide by our tabling guidelines:

1. Jumu'ah Time Review(Required)

I have reviewed the time and logistics for the weekly Friday prayer services at https://mcceastbay.org/prayer

2. Master Calendar Time Review(Required)

I have reviewed that the Friday I have requested is currently not blocked off (two nonprofits max per Friday) at https://mcceastbay.org/calendar

3. Non-Profit Status Showing Local Relevance(Required)

I represent a nonprofit with an address in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am enclosing our 501(c)(3) IRS determination letter that bears that address. In order to prove our non‐profit status, I understand that a 501(c)(3) determination letter is the only documentation that MCC accepts. I must send this crucial documentation with my application. I understand that my application will denied if I submit this form without this documentation.

4. Terms for Tabling Understanding(Required)

I understand that our organization may only engage in passive marketing & fundraising: placement of display brochures and materials and a donation box at the Friday table and up to two representatives handing out fundraising literature and answering questions. You may NOT leave your table in the MCC foyer to flyer vehicles or to hand materials to worshippers as they enter or exit. An MCC representative will make the post‐prayer announcement from the minbar advising of your organization’s presence after the MCC events are announced.

5. Supporting Bay Area Nonprofits(Required)

I understand that MCC has specific guidelines on how our organization supports a nonprofit organization. I have reviewed those criteria at https://mcceastbay.org/nonprofits
