Community Builders Chicago

Community Builders, Chicago (CBC) is a group of community activists engaged in facilitating the social and economic development of the Muslim community in Chicago. The group has been in existence since 2003. We believe that in order to promote our interests in America we need to establish more than Mosques and Islamic Schools in our communities. We feel that there is a need to establish institutions that will serve the social, political and economic needs of our community as well. Such institutions could be in the area of health care, business, finance, social welfare, media, public policy, philanthropy, etc.

Locations

Monthly Forums are held at two locations:
CBC Skokie meets on the first Friday of each month from 7pm-10pm, in the Holiday Inn Northshore, 5300 W. Touhy Ave, Skokie, IL.
CBC Rolling Meadows meets on the third Fri of each month 7pm-10pm at Northwest Suburban College, in Rolling Meadows, IL.
Both are dinner meetings. Meetings are free and open to the public. Dinner is with a fee.
