May 29th, National Muslim Soup Kitchen Day
All praise be to God, another year, another Annual NMSK day. Our Prophet (PBUH) taught us to work together and be a community that encourages good and forbids evil. Today, we are inviting you to do good by participating in the 6th Annual National Muslim Soup Kitchen Day!
Unite to feed
those in need
As-Salaamu Alaikum (Peace be upon you),
Join us as we embark on our Sixth National Muslim Soup Kitchen Project Day, on Saturday May 29th, 2021
National Muslim Soup Kitchen Day seeks to encourage as many groups as possible, including other-faith communities, locally in the Capital District – and nationally across the country – to come together once a year to plan and host a soup kitchen in all towns and cities to help those in need.
These soup kitchens are held on the same day all across the country, thereby helping to bring to light the value of our Muslim communities, and the role that they play in making our country a better place. At the Muslim Soup Kitchen Project, we aim to become the mechanism that connects the generosity of our Muslim communities nationwide to the needs of those in our respective communities. We need you to help us in this mission by tapping into the resources, the volunteer spirit, and support systems that have always been a part of our communities.

As a precaution and safety measure for all volunteers do to the COVID-19 Virus, instead of serving, it would be best to deliver food instead this year.
Over 4000 meals served
Let’s serve even more this year!

National Recognition
We know Muslim communities across our country are full of people with giving hands that work tirelessly and devote all that they have to help others. However, Muslim communities are not yet recognized as such on a national level. Let’s create positive awareness and unity by serving humanity.
