SHARE at Masjid Muhammad
SHARE at Masjid Muhammad
“SHARE@MM (Masjid Muhammad)”, celebrating its 14th year of operation, is a once-a-month food distribution program providing services to Seniors and families within our community as well as the broader local community. The SHARE Team has delivered over 4,000 packages of groceries since 2004. Our team travels to the SHARE, Inc. warehouse (under Catholic Charities), in Landover, MD, where they select a variety of food items. From there, those items are delivered to Masjid Muhammad where a team of long-standing volunteers sort and pack groceries for distribution to our growing list of customers. SHARE@MM is unique in that we are funded through volunteer donations from the Believers at Masjid Muhammad, the Nation’s Mosque. Typically, SHARE customers would have to pay $22-$25 for single food packages, however, based on community contributions, we provide groceries at no cost (!) to our Seniors and/or families-in-need. If you care to contribute to SHARE@MM, you can go online to thenationsmosque.org and click on the SHARE link; then press DONATE. Or, you can stop by our Business Office at 1519 Islamic Way (4th ST) NW, WDC 20001. Be sure to indicate on your payment receipt that your donation is for SHARE!
