Since its inauguration in the year 1944,The MICH has an impressive and enviable record of work both to the community and the country over a period of half a century. In fact the organization is now in its 63rd Year. Its resolve and determination to work with greater vigour and enthusiasm in the years ahead remain undaunted.

Two priority projects, one for the development of the Women’s Students Hostel at Wellawatte exclusively for Muslim girls coming from very poor and distant homes to pursue higher studies in Colombo. This building construction is almost completed, and will increase the accommodation from the present 30 to 300. This building will also have reception halls in its 4th and 5th floors which would be given on hire for weddings and other functions. The other project is the expansion of the Lady Fareed Home for Elders at Makola, which is in progress, to meet the increasing demand. To achieve this, the constraint is limited financial resources. The MICH needs the unstinted support of the community to make these prime and urgent projects a reality soon.
