Foundation Relief Efforts for the People of Mogadishu
As the world turns; as people
around the world go about their daily routines; and as people in the
Diaspora enjoy the creature comforts at their disposal, the people of
Mogadishu who have been displaced by the current fighting continue to die
in the bushes for lack of food, water, and medical care.
Amoud Foundation has raised and sent over
$20,000.00 for food, water, and shelter for the displaced people of
Mogadishu since the current violence started in December 2006. This has
been made possible by generous donations from the Muslim community of
North Texas, members of Masjid
Abubakar of Rochester, Minnesota, and the Islamic
Society of Central New York in Syracuse, New York. We thank these
communities for their generosity.
While it has become increasingly difficult for
relief agencies to reach the victims of the war, Amoud Foundation has been
fortunate to collaborate with Dr. Hawo Abdi and her staff in Afgoi to
deliver much-needed relief supplies. Dr.
Hawo, her daughter, Dr. Amina Adan, and their staff run a hospital for
the needy in Afgoi where they have been caring for thousands of people who
have taken refuge in and around the hospital and the surrounding areas.
Amoud Foundation and the institutions named above continue to raise funds
for the people of Mogadishu. We urge people to actively participate in
this noble humanitarian cause. Amoud Foundation honors the wishes of its
donors by using each donation only for the purpose for which it has been
designated by the donor.
