Welcome to Jummah Bakery, a culinary gem in Springfield, Virginia. We bring you fresh-baked bread, authentic Afghan pastries, and flavorful hot dishes in a warm, inviting space. Dedicated to quality and tradition, we offer spiced teas, delicious meals, and a welcoming community. More than just a bakery—it’s a cultural experience.
At Jummah Bakery, we're more than just a bakery – we're a community with a mission. Founded by individuals from Hamrah Institute, our journey began with a shared determination to support those in need in Afghanistan. Driven by this philanthropic vision, we've structured our business to be a source for charity.
Through our "Buy a Bread, Give a Bread" initiative, we ensure that for every bread purchased, another is donated to someone in need. Additionally, 20% of our profits go towards supporting the poor and needy in Afghanistan, helping widows and orphans through charitable programs.
But our commitment goes beyond charity—we bring people together through food, culture, and tradition. Every bite you take supports a greater cause, making a tangible difference in someone’s life. Thank you for being part of our story. Together, we can create change, one meal at a time.
The recent influx of Afghan arrivals to the U.S. has brought unique challenges as they adapt to a new environment. At Jummah Bakery, we recognize the importance of preserving cultural identity and are committed to supporting both Afghan newcomers and the broader community.
