As per By-laws of Islamic Centre of South Calgary, it is time to elect the new Board of Directors for next two-year term (July 2021 to July 2023). ICSC Board decided to hold election one month ahead of time (Having election in Jun’21 rather than Jul’21), because Eid and Hajj is falling in Jul’21 and people may leave for Hajj.

• Vice-President
• Secretary
• Treasurer
• Directors (7 positions)

We request and encourage people to volunteer on the board, especially our sisters and youth (our future leaders) and make our community’s representation and institution strong by participating in a friendly and positive election process and electing your new Board of Directors.

Election Date & Time:

The Elections will be held on Sunday June 27th from 10:00 AM till 8:00 PM and the results will be announced after Maghrib.

Islamic Centre of South Calgary believes in providing equal and non-contentious opportunity to stand as a candidate. At no time any member or donor details will be shared with any specific candidates. Only the candidate profiles in correct template form will be issued to the community through ICSC information. We urge to keep a positive and festive air around the elections.
