In the spirit of Giving for Eid

 

The Rotary Club of Princes Town Trinidad and Tobago (“the Club”) in celebration of Eid with the Muslim Community conducted an Eid Treat at the Masjid Us Salaam in Lazzari Village on Sunday 27^th July 2014. 

 

Imam Kameel Mohammed welcomed the Club’s involvement in bringing joy and merriment to all who attended and thanked the Club for its generous and thoughtful initiative.  The Club’s President Jamir Ousman in the course of bringing greetings from the Club delivered a prayer in Arabic. 

 

Over 70 children and parents from the community attended the event, which was made even more special by prayers being offered in Arabic by two children Nicholas and Alim and a rendition of a song in Arabic by children Sadia and Karmia.

 

All the children were treated with treat bags and toys while the adults were given gifts of hampers.  There was a common feeling of sharing and satisfaction between the Club and the attendees and the Club’s effort was recognised as reflective of the spirit of Eid.   

 

Rotarian Von Mohammed was responsible for organizing the event with the assistance of the Masjid's Imam Kameel Mohammed and his wife Nazma and with the support of fellow Rotarians from the Club the event turned out to be a great success for all who attended.
