Iftaar and Dinner at ISGKC on the night of 27th Ramadan

As-Salaam Alaikum, Ramadan Mubarak! As we do every Ramadan, the Bangladeshi Muslims are once again organizing an Iftaar-&-Dinner at the Islamic Society of Greater Kansas City (ISGKC Masajid at 8501 E 99th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64134) on the night of 27th Ramadan (Liylatul Qadr), which is on Tuesday, August 14th. The dinner will be followed by a fundraising event to support ISGKC. In previous years we have helped to collect significant amount of money in similar events. This year is particularly important given that ISGKC has taken several major initiatives including Masajid expansion, community center kitchen modernization, and funeral facility upgrade, which will be of great service to the entire Muslim community in the region. Please mark your calendar and join us on the night of Liylatul Qadr at ISGKC, Insha’Allah. We are inviting you to contribute generously to this noble cause. The suggested amount is $75 or more (by check payable to ISGKC; write "ISGKC IFTAAR" on the memo line). The collected money will go towards the expenses for arranging Iftaar-&-Dinner for 400+ attendees; any remaining balance will be donated to ISGKC as before. Additionally, please consider attending the fundraising and donating generously. Why ISGKC? ISGKC uniquely serves the community in many different ways as a central organization and deserves our full support. To name a few, ISGKC provides leadership in all Muslim affairs in this region, facilitates Eid prayers, Friday prayers, and daily prayers, provides full-service Islamic funeral services, and runs an accredited full-time Islamic school. Let us take pride as Bangladeshi Muslims by being examples to others through active participation in the community. Ramadan is about giving; let us demonstrate that we care by giving back to our Muslim community. Volunteers will soon be contacting you to facilitate your donations. If you would like to volunteer in making phone calls and/or during the event, please let us know too. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to all Bangladeshi Muslims near and far. We are counting on you for this noble cause!! May Allah Sub'hanu'wata'la forgive us, accept our good deeds, and accept us among HIS true servants during the month of Ramadan.
