Yesterday’s Eid Literacy Fair sponsored by Girl Scout Troop 25007 (Roswell Community Masjid - RCM) was truly beautiful. These incredible middle schoolers first reached out to Ethaar back in January wanting to collaborate on a fun and meaningful Silver Award Project. Together, we brainstormed ideas and timing and decided on hosting an Eid Literacy Festival at Masjid Al-Momineen.
Over the past several months, these girls raised more than $2,000, and I was beyond impressed by their leadership, autonomy, and dedication every step of the way. They organized bounce houses, food, crafts, snacks, books, face painting, and even balloon art done by their fellow scouts! There were 200+ children that enjoyed the festivities!
Ethaar was honored to be part of such a joyful event. We prepared goodie bags for the children filled with pens, pencils, bookmarks, stickers, cookies, and of course, the very popular Gushers! Seeing families gather, children smiling, and the community celebrating together made the entire day so special. Everyone had such a wonderful time.
