On Friday, June 23rd, the last Friday during Ramadan, a group of eight volunteers from the BIS worked with Greater Birmingham Ministries (GBM) to pack snacks for elementary-aged children in the Birmingham area through the "Thank Goodness I'm Fed" program.
Through this program, children whose families struggle to put food on the table during the summer are given free meals. As Muslims, caring for the less fortunate in our society is a crucial component of serving Allah (SWT), and there is no better time to work with others than during the blessed month of Ramadan. We look forward to participating in this project next Ramadan, Inshallah, and are thankful for the wonderful work being done by GBM in our community.
