Our story

Mutawally & Malkia Altruistic Community Services was born from the Oakland community and built from firsthand experience with the challenges families face after losing a loved one. We witnessed families grieving while also struggling with the financial burden of funeral and burial expenses. From that experience came our commitment to serve with compassion, dignity, and respect. Our mission is to stand beside families during some of life's most difficult moments by connecting them with meaningful support,  resources, and assistance. We believe no family should have to face grief alone.

Our history

Mutawally & Malkia Altruistic Community Services grew from firsthand experiences within the Oakland community. After witnessing families struggle to bury their loved ones while already carrying the pain of grief, we recognized a need for compassionate community support. What began as concern for our neighbors became a commitment to help families facing funeral and burial expenses during some of life's most difficult moments. Our history is rooted in community, compassion, dignity, and the belief that no family should have to face such a difficult journey alone.
