Our Programs :\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Food Drives & Holiday Meals<\/h3>\n

Families receive fresh groceries and pantry items through our ongoing food drives, including our large-scale Thanksgiving distribution. These events make sure households can enjoy a warm meal without worry.<\/p>\n

Back-to-School Support<\/h3>\n

Each summer, students receive backpacks filled with the supplies they need to start the school year ready and confident. This program reduces financial pressure on parents and gives children a fair start.<\/p>\n

Refugee Support: Food, Clothing & Resettlement Assistance<\/h3>\n

Upstate NY is home to many refugee families. We support them with food, clothing, hygiene items, and settlement guidance as they adjust to new surroundings and rebuild their lives.<\/p>\n

Seasonal Holiday Distributions<\/h3>\n

During the winter months, families receive toys, warm clothing, and essential items. These distributions bring comfort to households facing financial hardship.<\/p>\n

Qurbani Meat Distribution<\/h3>\n

Every Eid al-Adha, we deliver fresh Qurbani meat to families in need. This program ensures that everyone can take part in the blessings of the holiday.<\/p>\n

Ramadan Food Baskets<\/h3>\n

Before Ramadan begins, we prepare baskets filled with dates, rice, oil, and other essentials. These baskets help families observe the month with dignity and ease.<\/p>\n

Mobile Health Services<\/h3>\n

Our mobile health unit brings basic medical screenings and preventive care directly to underserved communities. This removes barriers and gives families access to vital health support.<\/strong><\/p>\n
