Funds For Christchurch Shooting Victims
It's with great sorrow that we share this story. As we're sure you know, a terrible incident took place yesterday, March 15th, in Christchurch, New Zealand. A gunman opened fire in 2 mosques (Masjid Al Noor & Linwood Masjid Mosque) during Friday prayers, leaving 50 people dead and another 50 injured as of now.
We at the Islamic Center of Conejo Valley (ICCV) in Newbury Park, CA would like to assist the victims and the families of those who lost a loved one in this senseless act of violence. Let's show our Muslim brothers and sisters in Christchurch that we stand by them, as geography doesn't separate us from our Ummah (Community). We invite all our members to donate to this just cause. We also welcome our friends to contribute, regardless of faith or background.
All proceeds will be transferred from our organization to Islamic Relief, who is authorized to provide support for the immediate, short-term needs of the injured victims and the grieving families. Their webpage for the cause can be found here: https://irusa.org/new-zealand/.
