February 14 @ 1:30 pm
This is an initiative to support needy families in our community this Ramadan by donating food boxes with essential items. The plan is to work with a local nonprofit called Essentials First to create these food boxes.
You can read more about the great work that Essentials First does on their website here: https://www.essentialsfirst.org/
Each Ramadan food box includes ~$70 worth of items for one family for the month with the goal is to support at least 200 families.
The ask to our SMA community will be as follows:
– Donate funds to purchase food box items
– Purchase food box items yourself
– Volunteer your time (purchasing items, packing boxes & delivery)
