September is Hunger Action Month, and the Downtown Denver Islamic Center has launched a critical fundraising campaign to support our food operations. Our goal is to raise $50,000 by the end of September, and we invite you to be a part of it.
Today, we’re seeing more people than we could have anticipated turning to us for support. In July, DDIC distributed more than 21,000 pounds of food and thousands of dollars in cash assistance and supported 23,000 people. We’ve seen a 32.5% increase in the number of persons we’re serving each month since SNAP benefits ended in April.
Every $250 donation provides food for a family of five for a week.
To help us reach our goal, please consider making a donation today. Every gift – no matter the size – will bring us closer to serving more individuals and families in need.
