University of Ottawa students Nora Abdalaal, Tuba Yousuf, Jawdat Saleh, and Nour Khalaf, have raised enough funds to provide meals for a number of people at the Ottawa Mission this Friday, June 24th. Volunteers are still welcome to get involved to help with preparation and distribution.
Muslim Link interviewed the students about their “Break Your Fast with Charity : Feed the Mission” Ramadan initiative.
The University of Ottawa’s Social Wellness Club has joined a Group of Five to privately sponsor a Syrian family. They are crowdfunding $5,000 over Ramadan as their contribution to this joint effort. Financial contributions can be made online here.
Muslim Link interviewed the club members about their initiative.
