Black Eid Gift Drive
EID GIFTS | Black Muslim Kids in Ontario
Hello Friends,
It's that time of year again where we collect donations, toys, books and gift cards to celebrate and affirm young Black Muslims in Ontario (ages 0-17) . Living at the intersections of Islamophobia, anti-Black racism and poverty in Ontario. The current climate has meant that many Black Muslim kids need affirmation and support to feel empowered and included to celebrate Eid Al Fitr unapologetically. Islamophobia is a gendered and racialized experience, disproportionately impacting Black Muslims and their family, who are among the most vulnerable communities in Ontario.
Last year we sent over 400 gifts of books, toys, gift cards and art supplies to Black Muslim families in Ontario. This year we would love to do even more, with your help.
You can contribute by buying items from our Amazon wish list here. You can also choose to buy items from other locations (including things which are not on the list). You can also contribute financially by sending a donation by Interac E transfer to hello@raniawrites.com or by PayPal here. The list is updated as we receive requests for gifts. The deadline for donations is May 30th, 2019
This year we're very excited to partner with Queen Books, an independently owned bookstore in Toronto. You can buy some amazing t itles from our list at Queen Books, leave them with staff, who wrap them and hang onto them for us. Support this awesome, local business.
All items can be mailed or dropped off to:
RaniaWrites
3-585 Dundas Street East ( Centre for Social Innovation)
Daniels Spectrum
Toronto, ON
M5A2B7
If you would like to sign up to receive a gift. Please do so here. Please note that the deadline to sign up is May 22, 2019 and although we strive to meet every child's request, our effort is entirely voluntary and donation based.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us here.
