Every night, 6,215 women and children seek shelter because home isn't safe.1
(Shelter Voices)
These are women & children right here in Canada, in our neighbourhoods, schools and mosques. Women & children who are not safe in their homes, live in fear, have been kicked out, or are homeless. But they all have one thing in common, they need their community because they have nowhere else to go.

This Ramadan, we need to come together to their lives, giving them safe place to turn to and resources to start over. We, as a community, need to work together to support the most vulnerable and to be one ummah like the Prophet (PBUH) taught us.
