Birmingham Islamic Society (BIS) is hosted an Eid al Fitr Toy Drive this year from the 25th of May until the 11th of June 2017.
Every December, holiday toy drives are organized throughout the U.S. with many participants. That is why it was felt, that we should also do something similar at a time when we celebrate our festival, Eid al-Fitr.
Toys will be donated to the less fortunate, regardless of their religious beliefs. Giving gifts solidifies the bonds of love as these are days of joy and happiness. Hence, we want others to have the same experience that our families are having during this time.
The toys will be donated to The Lovelady Center in Birmingham. The Lovelady Center offers a program that is to designed to restore hope and rebuild lives of women and children, and they have around 100 kids.
