Community Appreciation Iftar
As-salamu alaykum Milwaukee,
BintJamila’s Table in collaboration with Milwaukee4Palestine and UMMA invite you to the second annual Community Appreciation Iftar at Radio Milwaukee.
This family friendly iftar invites folks from across the Milwaukee community to gather to reflect on & honor the incredible work of local activists, volunteers, artists, and community members who have worked tirelessly over the last year to advocate for the Palestinian cause, collective liberation, and freedom.
The Iftar is free of charge and everyone is welcome!
It will also be a space to collectively grieve the atrocities taking place and be in community with one another while breaking our fast to delicious, home cooked Palestinian, Afghani, Burmese, and Sudanese food.
Taking action:
This year we have chosen to highlight two local organizations that have been impacted in their efforts to support of our community in the fight for liberation.
Hanan Refugees Relief Group: Hanan is a dedicated local organization playing a pivotal role in helping newly arrived refugees rebuild their lives. By providing essential services, they ensure refugees have the support needed to thrive in their new communities. Donate here
Zao MKE Church: Zao MKE Church is a vibrant, welcoming community blending faith, creativity, and service to others. With a focus on making a positive impact, Zao offers engaging services and hands-on outreach that directly uplift those in need. Donate here
We encourage guests to donate what they can to Hanan Refugees Relief Group and Zao MKe Church. Volunteer opportunities are also available with both organizations if that is more your cup of tea.
