Assalamu Alakum
I pray that this email reaches you all int he best of health and iman. This is Jamilaih, The owner of The Community Closet mashallah. I am writing for a plea for the families that have requested assistance of me mashaallah. This is a difficult time of year for several families. Some are out of work due to injuries others mashaallah are struggling because of the weather and not having enough work for these conditions.
I have made a list mashsallah and numbered the families. I can either give your thier contact information directly or you can send thigns for them inshaallah according to number.

family 1 is mashaallah a very sweet single sister who is an amputee with diabetes. she is struggling to buy medical supplies, prescriptions and food for herself mashaallah. she has to pay people to go to the store for her and do all of her needs outside of her small home. she is requesting 400.00 inshaallah. she can accept anything even gift cards for supermarkets or rite aides where her prescriptions are filled inshaallah.

family 2 is a brother with 6 children mashaallah he is having trouble paying his rent and he is having a hard time providing food for his children he is requesting food and 500.00 to pay his rent inshaallah i can get his landlord information and rent can be made straight to the sister who he is renting form inshaallah

family 3 is a brother and sister and 4 children. the brother has been out of work for several weeks he pulled a muscle in his lag and it was so severe it was casted and he was unable to work he has returned allhudulillah but they are a month behind on their rent and have a gas and electric shut off notice. I can give you information to pay their gas and electric to the company and rent can be made to the rental company inshaallah.

family 4 is mashaallah a brother and sister with 6 children. two are disabled mashaallah. they are having major car trouble they cannot get their children to the hospital with out proper transportation inshallah they are seeking 1,500.00 for a down payment on a car i have verified the information and the car will be interest free. i can give you the name and information to the dealership but it will have to be if most or all of it is sent at once to them they cannot take small donations and hold on to them. that would be something for the family to do inshaallah so it can be sent to them as well inshaallah or i can hold it until it is the needed amount inshaallah. they also need help with utilities isnahallah

Please inshaallah help if you can ll the families have been verified inshaallah.
Assalamu Alakum Jamilaih
