Help our less fortunate sisters and brothers around the world.
Hidaya Foundation will bring a 14-foot box truck to the MCC parking lot during the three Jumu’ah services (1 p.m. to 4 p.m.) on Friday, March 18.
The collection truck staff will give you a tax deductible receipt. A $10 donation is necessary per bag to help cover the container shipping cost to send to your needy Muslim sister and brothers overseas.
Please be considerate of your donation and give dignity to the families receiving your kind and generous donations by donating quality used items that are washed and folded.
The Hidaya Foundation collection truck will accept:
- – Winter coats, jackets, sweatshirts (for all ages and for all seasons)
- – Blankets, sleeping bags, comforters, pillows, bed sheets, towels
- – Baby clothes, regular clothes and traditional clothes like Shalwar Kamis (mens & womens), Hijabs, etc.
- – Tennis shoes, sneakers, runners, boots, sandals (tie laces together)
- – Crutches, wheelchairs, braces, splints, wraps, first-aid supplies
- – Backpacks with school supplies and educational books
- – Children’s toys
- – Pots and pans and kitchen items
- – Tents, tarps & tools
- – Computer equipment, laptops, flat-screen monitors and computers
- – No food items since it’s cheaper to buy locally, and gets there faster.
Please make sure to tie all shoes laces together to ensure pairs stay together.
