In 2005, it is estimated that more than36 percent of those served by food pantries, soup kitchens, and shelters were children.

  • Meat Details

The cost for a single animal is $1050, which is then broken down into donor shares that may be purchased at $3.50 per pound. Donors may purchase the entire animal, or designate one or more shares for distribution. Currently, 30 cows have been purchased for national distribution to those in need. All animals sacrificed are grass fed (no pork feed, no hormones)

  • Slaughter and Delivery

Slaughter of the animals, according to Islamic tradition, will take place on May 18, 2009, after which the meat will be processed and frozen. The packaged meat is scheduled for shipment via FedEx to participating MAS chapters and Islamic centers on June 1, 2009 for delivery no later than June 6, 2009. Each chapter/Islamic center is then responsible for immediate distribution to prearranged distribution centers/recipients
