Cordoba House Sunday School

Naz Ahmed Georgas pioneered the establishment of the Cordoba House Sunday School, an award winning weekend education program in NYC. The program was launched to meet the needs of growing American Muslim families seeking a Sunday school education that is both authentically Islamic and relevant to contemporary American life. The program’s mission is to build a uniquely inclusive and nurturing learning environment that promotes the notion that our children can be both proudly Muslim and proudly American.  

Founded in 2017 in collaboration with educators from Muslim and interfaith institutions, including the Brick Presbyterian Church in NYC, the Cordoba House Sunday School has already received awards for community empowerment and service to the education of children and youth.
