We all know the true pillars and foundations of this community started with the brothers and sisters that founded the Islamic Association of Cincinnati in 1969. They have dedicated 40-plus years of their lives to building this organization, and have graciously entrusted these employees to continue to spread the dream that is the Clifton Mosque.
Jason Brima - Office Manager
Jason Brima took his shahada 7 years ago in Cincinnati, Ohio where he was born and raised. As an American convert, he strives to be a better Muslim each day and has linked volunteering at the masjid as a direct way to help serve the community, and to achieve closeness to Allah. His dedication to being a better Muslim has resulted in being a better husband, son, and father to his family. Jason has been an active community member of the Clifton Mosque in the course of recent years. This past Ramadan he volunteered with other members of the community to help break the fast of brothers and sisters by serving food at the nightly iftars. Over the past 3 years, he took on the responsibility of overseeing the food pantry, which provides emergency food and other things like toiletries, detergents, personal items, and diapers for those in need. Jason has also served on the social service and education committee where he promotes individual, family, and community well-being at the Clifton Mosque. Jason hopes to continue to serve the community in his new role as the office manager.
Professionally, Jason has many years of managerial experience in the mental healthcare industry. Academically, Jason has earned a certificate in human services in addition to an associate’s degree in both marketing management and business management. Currently, Jason is in his final semester of college for his bachelor’s degree in accounting and finance, InshaAllah.
Jason is excited, humbled, and honored to have another opportunity to serve the community, and he kindly asks for your duas that Allah allows him to do his job with excellence and serve in the best possible manner.
