How would you like to take a nice morning walk at the Trexler Game Preserve for a good cause? Well, for our next event, UMF Allentown members have started a team for the 2005 Memory Walk to raise money for people with Alzheimer’s disease. The walk will be held on Saturday, October 8, 2005. Please join the UMF team and together we can improve the lives of the 4.5 million Americans who are affected with Alzheimer’s disease today. The goals we have set for our team are to have a total of at least 15 members and $1,000 raised. Click on the picture to see our team's webpage and make your contribution.

The United Muslim Foundation is honored to have a special invitation to lead in a discussion on Islam at a church located just west of Disney World on Sunday, October 9th from 4-6pm.

We will be arranging a group of a few volunteers, since there might be questions posed that are challenging, or can be answered from more than one perspective. If you are interested in an opportunity to clarify misconceptions about Islam and want to make a difference we want to hear from you! Give us a call at (407) 804-1504 for more information or e-mail us now at info@unitedmuslimfoundation.org

UMF would like to call out to our members and supporters far and wide to reach into your hearts and help the starving in Mali and Niger and families in need in India, in time for this Ramadhan.

Niger and Mali are 2nd and 4th poorest countries in the world, respectively.It takes very little to help tthem. � Cost of feeding one person per day: $1.21 � Cost of supplementary feeding for malnourished child for a day: $7.27 (a severely malnourished child needs a month of feeding to recover) � Cost of primary health care medicine for a family of six persons per month: $12.12

Comfort Aid International supports about 10,000 families in India with food aid during the holy month of Ramadhan.The food aid for India consists of: � 5 kg rice � 5 kg atta � 5 kg daal or other pulses� 2 kg sugar� 1 liter cooking oil� 1 bottle ghee� 1/2 kg dates� 1/4 kg tea� 1 kg salt � This is basic stuff and it costs about $12 per family

You can donate by cash, check (made out to United Muslim Foundation) or credit card and all your tax deductible funds will be sent for the cause you specify (India or Niger/Mali). Please note that donations for India will be collected only through 9/3/05 to make it in time for the Ramadhan distribution.

We are holding our first fundraising competition to raise money for UMF, to help us in our objectives to Promote Unity, Educate Society and Serve Humanity. The 3 members who raise the most money will each get a “Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom” admission ticket good for use anytime during the 2005 season.

So go out and talk to people, solicit donations, promote awareness of UMF, and be in the running to win a great prize! All fundraising forms and donations must be collected and submitted by September 20, 2005.

Remember: Without our volunteers, UMF would be nonexistent. May Allah reward all of you for your efforts, time, and generosity. Ameen.
