Here at UMMA our community means everything, and we need our communities help. As we are growing we are trying to work with the community to offer what will be the most helpful and fulfilling for as many people as we can. We have a google form link below with some selections that we have been able to offer in the past and are wondering if you would like to see them come back and a section to fill in your own suggestions. If you feel more comfortable leaving a reply to this post with suggestions we would appreciate that too.
