Dear John,
We're just 1 Day away from our big day! We're so excited to welcome many of our guests, our leadership committee, and the partners in our work. Please purchase your tickets today if you haven't done so already.
Just to highlight a couple of our achievements over the past two years:
* We are one of the responding organizations to the Bronx fire crisis, giving out over $200,000 in cash-assistance to the residents of the building to help support their housing needs. See news coverage here. ([link removed])
* We provided over $30,000 in cash-assistance to vulnerable New Yorkers during the pandemic and operated a hotline that received over 500 calls.
* We've been addressing the food insecurity needs of our communities by giving out hundreds of boxes of food. See news coverage here. ([link removed])
* We're also at the forefront of advocacy work on behalf of Muslim New Yorkers and have published a report on the incidents of hate crimes. See news coverage here. ([link removed])
All the more reasons and more to come out and support us!
If you can't make it, please consider a donation to help support our mission! We will be eternally grateful!
Sincerely,
Aniqa Nawabi
Executive Director
