Join us for the first Muslim Poverty Justice Summit on Saturday, April 25, inshaAllah!
The United States is at a pivotal moment in its history. With a fast growing U.S. Muslim community in both numbers and in societal and political influence, and the current U.S. society facing tremedous challenges, the time is now for the Muslim community to come together with a unified vision to make a more powerful, collective impact on the society, especially in the area of poverty, which is only worsening and spreading. African-American and inner-citiy communities across the U.S have had longstanding systemic poverty, preventing many individuals from advancing in the society, denying them of their full human dignity and reaching their full potential. The question the arises, how can we positively contribute to the solution to uplifting and supporting our brother in sisters in faith and in humanity, something we are commanded to do as Muslims?
Come to MABL-DFW's Poverty Justice Summit for an informative, faith-rooted gathering that brings Muslims leaders, service providers and community partners together to address systemic & individual barriers that create and reinforce poverty and devise collaborative, practical solutions to reduce poverty in DFW, particularly in African-American and inner-city communities. We plan to leave with solutions and commitments as the first step to real change.
This summit is for non-profit leaders, faith-based organizations, students, activists and anyone passionate about real change.
Free and open to the public, time: 10 am - 3 pm, location: Dallas Central Library auditorium.
