40 Years of Empowering Muslim Youth Across North America

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah,

This year, Muslim Youth of North America (MYNA) proudly celebrates its 40th anniversary — four decades of igniting the hearts of young Muslims with purpose, unity, and unwavering faith. Since 1985, MYNA has served as a launchpad for thousands of Muslim youth to explore their identities, strengthen their deen, and become leaders in their communities.

From transformative winter and summer camps, thought-provoking regional conferences, to our ever-growing creative platforms and leadership programs, MYNA has stood as a home for countless teens navigating the complexities of growing up Muslim in North America.

What started as a vision has grown into a movement.

Here’s to 40 years of Cultivating confident Muslim leaders, fostering lifelong friendships rooted in faith, uplifting youth voices across the continent, and creating safe, welcoming spaces to learn, grow, and thrive As we reflect on the past, we also look ahead — with gratitude for the trailblazers who built MYNA and excitement for the generations that will carry the torch forward, inshaAllah.

Here’s to 40 more years.
Alhamdulillah.

With love and du’a,
The MYNA Team 💚
