Fajr Memorial Foundation is doing great work and helping save lives! Honored to be a part of this amazing mission.
Coach Ellen & Team of her coaches are doing wonders. They teach with love & passion. Sr Amna works hard to educate her participants about water safety. Craig & TJ doing same for our boys.
Fajr Memorial has been successfully conducting an excellent year round all girls’ swimming program in a safe and clean environment for the last decade. Sister Amina and her team of coaches ensure that the girls get to train in state of the art facility and in constant supervision to avoid any accidents. They are raising awareness regarding water safety, hygiene and exercise in their students and also run a similar program for boys/gents. My family and I have been students of Fajr Memorial Swim sessions for last eight years and would encourage all adults and kids to look into water safety programs in order to prevent drowning and loss of precious life.

The coaches at Fajr Memorial are doing a wonderful job of connecting with their students and making them feel safe in the water. Their expertise is demonstrated with the techniques that they use to teach students. Instruction is differentiated, with coaches guiding their students based on their individual needs and comfort level.
My daughter started this program terrified of water and now loves being in the pool!
Fajr Memorial Foundation has gone above and beyond to serve its communities. They have worked hard on teaching people how to swim and educate them on water safety. They have also worked hard to serve people within their community tremendously during Covid. At a time when they were unable to teach people how to swim due to peak Covid in 2020, they pivoted and served hundreds in the NYC Metro area with boxes of essential supplies and food.
Attended drowning prevention workshop given by Ms Amna. It was informative & educational. I always educate friends & family about how to prevent accident happening.
This organization welcomes anyone and brings them to the next level of swimming. Whether it is just comfortability or stroke enhancement, they cater the instruction to the student.
And there’s such a warm vibe! So many positive people, courageously taking steps to improve their lives.
It’s truly my honor to get to serve the community and FMF has been gracious enough to allow us the opportunity to do so in a safe space for minorities and women alike.
Fajr Javid Foundation has helped my family and I so much! I have three nieces who wanted to learn how to swim. But there was not a lot of places they felt comfortable. FJF made them feel welcomed and they enjoyed going. They are an amazing organization that gives back so much to the community. During the Pandemic they have food and DELIVERED it to people in need.
Very nice respectful people! Love them. They talk to you and help you and go out of their way. I really appreciated that!
FMF provides affordable, same gender, swim lessons to conservative Muslim families. Class size is small so students of all ages get a lot of personal attention.
I really enjoy taking classes at Fajr Memorial! The instructors are great and I really feel like I’m part of a community at FMF. I look forward to many more lessons with FMF.
The best swimming learning facility with experience trainers.Clean and friendly environment.The excellent place for kids and family to learn and enjoy swimming.
I always wanted to learn how to swim but need a female instructor in a hijab friendly environment. Fajr foundation is making it happen for me. I can’t thank them enough in helping us learn a basic life trait.
had an amazing learning experience with great people who love what they do.
recommend every one to go join them to Learn how to swim. Its not just fun but also a life saving skill which they teach you from bottom of their heart.
Most beautiful personalities with the best message. Learning from a trauma and helping other families prevent it is one of the biggest forms of strength and generosity.

FMF have been serving the community for years. Sr. Amna and her family are dedicated and hardworking. They turned their tragedy into something that has helped countless people. You guys do good work, may Allah accept!
I am proud to be a volunteer and supporting member of the Fajr Memorial Foundation. The organization's mission is absolutely noble to teach people how to swim which is a life-saving skill. I am so grateful to Fajr Memorial that it enabled me to learn to swim in a women-only setting. Now when I smoothly do my straight 40 to 50 laps in an Olympic size pool, I still remember the time when I couldn't swim half of the pool without help. The organization provides the opportunity to women like me who always have a passion for swimming but never got a chance to learn in their childhood. Also, FMF develops in me a respect for the water and how to keep myself and others safe around it. Now during this time of COVID-19 pandemic, Fajr Memorial Foundation volunteers are distributing groceries and essentials to needy families. Way to go FMF! let's keep doing the good work.
I was learning how to swim there before covid 19 started and I learned a lot in first 2/3 lessons with them. They taught us how to be water safe in & around water. Looking forward to going back as soon as they open & start classes.
Learned how to swim & now learning how to teach others. They focus on water safety precautions while teaching swimming.
Can’t wait to get back once Covid 19 slows down & they resume swim classes.
For Muslim women, it is hard to find only women swimming classes. FmF is crucial for teaching Muslim girls life saving skills. They do an amazing job at organized teaching, and manage to do so much in the time they have.
it’s honestly so amazing how you guys took something so heartbreaking and made it a means of awareness for others.. by saving so many people through teaching them.. may Allah ﷻ accept
In the memory of my sweet, former student Fajr Javid- I love what this foundation has worked to do over the years to help our community. Keep up the great work!

Fajr Memorial Foundation is a fantastic non profit based business which is running very succesful due to the intentions and kindness that goes on behind the foundations idea. Helping children learning to swim and boosting their confidence to swim at a good level for safety. I would definetly reccommend fajr memorial foundation to those who are looking for non profit organisations.
I have known the Javid family for years. I remember the fund raisers they had to get Far Memorial Foundation started and the opening day of swim classes. All of their hard work to promote a cause they truly believe in, that drowning is an epidemic that can be prevented and mitigated, is inspiring. I love this foundation and I loved volunteering with them. I hope to see it continue to grow and strive as a testament to the love and strength this family has.
