Feed the Needy Online Fundraiser: Over $252,000 Raised

Dear Seeker,

Alhamdulillah, earlier today, SeekersGuidance and Islamic Relief were able to raise over $252,000 within the span of just two hours at the “Feed the Needy Online Fundraiser.” If you were unable to attend the event, pictures and videos will be uploaded to our blog, but please take a moment and make a donation to Islamic Relief for the noble cause of eliminating global hunger.

We would like to give special thanks to our wonderful scholars and speakers – Imam Zaid Shakir, Shaykh Abdullah Hakim Quick, Shaykh Muhammad Ninowy, Imam Tahir Anwar, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani, Preacher Moss, Hadia Mubarak, and Nura Sediqe. And also to Sidi Shahid Constantino (Tech), Sidi Khuram Zaman (Outreach), Sr. Nora Alfaham (Design), and Sidi Abu Bakr Batasi (Outreach), for their efforts in making this event a success. Special thanks also to Sr. Hafsa Hasan of Islamic Relief Canada, and Sidi Naeem Muhammad of Islamic Relief US for their reaching out to us and their help in making this possible.

Imam Zaid’s Challenge: Get 10 people to Donate in the Next 24 Hours While the event was a success, the work is not done. During the closing remarks, Imam Zaid Shakir exhorted us not to remain content with reaching the goal, but to rise above and beyond it. He’s calling upon each and every one of us to spread the word about the ills of malnourishmen,t and wants each of you to find 10 people within the next 24 hours who can donate.

To facilitate this, SeekersGuidance will give a free course for the Fall 2009 semester to anyone who donates over $500.
