MPAC Supports Muslim American-Led Fund For Ft. Hood Victims' Families

November 10, 2009

The Muslim Public Affairs Council today expressed its support for a newly established fund by the Islamic Society of North America and the Texas-based Freedom and Justice Foundation, to assist the victims of the families of the Fort Hood tragedy. Recognizing the important sacrifices made by our soldiers and their families, it is imperative for all Americans to join hands in supporting those affected by this tragic incident.
 
"In the wake of this tragedy, many of the victims' families not only lost their loved ones, but also their primary breadwinner," said Executive Director Salam Al-Marayati. "We are calling on all mosques and individuals within the United States to show support for the victim's families by contributing to the Fund."
