Resilience in the Face of Adversity Join MLFA on #GivingTuesday
“Resilience” means to bend but not break. This characteristic is essential when it comes to litigation because it involves a tremendous amount of work over an extended period with inevitable setbacks and disappointments along the way. The types of cases funded by MLFA, fought by lawyers at the grant-funded CLCMA, have often been litigated for years even before they come to
our attention.
Giving Tuesday (December 1st) is a global day of giving fueled by the power of people. Generosity is not just something we wish for someone else, but an opportunity that we ALL have to make a difference in our communities and create positive change around the globe. And it all starts with YOU. The message is clear—we must come together as a community and as a world to address the world's most pressing challenges.
The Muslim Legal Fund of America (MLFA) is a nonprofit organization that funds legal work and programs to defend Muslims against injustices in American Courtroom, prisons, and communities. MLFA is the only national tax-exempt nonprofit legal fund dedicated to defending Muslim's civil rights and liberties at the federal level.
This pandemic represents one of the most significant challenges that we have faced in our lifetimes. Many people are out of work, organizations are struggling, some are furloughing or even laying off employees, and all of us are dealing with the day-to-day impact on our lives. But our work must continue. The people we support cannot be abandoned, regardless of the circumstances. The cases that we have fought for years, and continue to fight, have to be seen through their inevitable conclusions.
We are at a critical time in our history, and we need YOU.
Your Support Helps our Impact Grow
By giving today, you will help MLFA—
Defend constitutional civil rights and liberties of Muslims in America
Provide free legal representation to Muslims facing religious discrimination
Empower and protect American Muslim institutions
Support the common, central value of Islam and America: Justice
Restore justice for innocent Muslims and their families
Giving Tuesday is a day for giving. It is a day for you to give back and pay-it-forward, a day to serve, and a day to challenge all of us to be—and do—more.
Join MLFA on December 1 to fund justice and resilience during a time of giving and help MLFA create lasting legal and social change for Muslims.
