Muslims Giving Back: NYC Covid19 Food Drive

Muslim Community Center and Muslims Giving Back Project NYC is at the center of the COVID-19 crises and numerous individuals and families have been devastated by losing their loved ones, their jobs, and their income to support their families. Muslims Giving Back, a 501c3 non-profit organization, has been working DAILY to bring as much help and assistance to those who have been affected by the virus and those who are fighting to protect us. Our current programs: Weekly homeless feedings: We feed the homeless every Friday and Saturday night. Over 300 meals served. Weekly food pantry: We have over 50 families that are coming to our center (Brooklyn) to receive food pantry bags to feed their children and loved ones. Almost all of these families are currently out of work and cannot file for unemployment.  Meals delivery to 1st responders: Almost everyday we are delivering hot meals to numerous Hospitals, FDNY firehouses, Police precincts, EMS stations across NYC.  Home grocery deliveries: Numerous families and single mothers are reaching out to receive food because they are sick to leave their homes or can't go outside due to having young children. We are currently delivering in Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island. Gift cards for families: We have teamed up with a local supermarket (Baladys) and a pharmacy (Nile Ridge pharmacy) to provide FREE discounted gift cards to families that need to purchase food and essential items such as diapers, medicine and hygiene products. Our Partners: Taheni Mediterranean Grill Halal Boys Atomic Wings Lutheran Halal Cafe Ali Baba Turkish Cuisine Balady's Supermarket Nile Ridge Pharmacy Pakistani American Youth Society MusCare Donations will be used to fund the above programs until this pandemic is over.  Any amount that is left will be donated to numerous families in need. ALL DONATIONS ARE ZAKAT ELIGIBLE AND TAX-DEDUCTIBLE.  ***Muslims Giving Back is a 100% volunteer organization which means 100% of your donations will go towards relief programs.
