What we do
We provide basic needs for human survival!
Our Projects
1. Mobile Pantry
The week starts for our volunteers on Tuesday. In the days leading up to the weekend, our volunteers do various grocery store trips to purchase: water, juice, snacks, and cooking ingredients for the week. Then, on Saturday morning, our teams of volunteers arrive at the mosque, early in the morning to prepare and cook over 220 meals. Then, these volunteers will load up vans and make their way to Pennsylvania Avenue, and Eutaw Street in downtown Baltimore. Here, our volunteers directly distribute these meals (entree, cookies, water, juice) to those populations in need. Then, once again, the cycle repeats, and the week starts with grocery trips and purchasing required goods for the weekend.
2. Clothing Drives
Every couple months, our teams also host clothing drives. The process starts with reaching out to members of our community for their kind clothing donations. We then spend multiple weeks collecting and organizing the clothes into boxes for different sizes, styles, and genders. Finally, when our projected date of distribution comes around, 2 teams of volunteers will head to our distribution spots on Pennsylvania Avenue and Eutaw Street to distribute food and clothes. To date, we have held 3 clothing drives and have distributed over 1200 articles of clothing.
3. Physical Pantry
Our final project is relatively new and in the development stage. Once a month we make 15 grocery bags with milk, cereal, eggs, bread, and more. We then take these bags and distribute them among hospital patients in need of any help that we can provide them. While our largest and oldest project is a mobile pantry, our smallest and newest project is a physical pantry. We have already talked with local schools in the area that have students who struggle with food insecurity. We are constantly looking for partners to help us with our physical pantry to help these students and grow our impact in our local communities even further.
Our Impact
