Fund Raising Appeal
To make these services accessible to everyone, all of our services are rendered free of charge. We are doing our best to function within our limited financial resources. It has been about 4½ years since our last fund raising event. We are out of funds and have incurred a debt of $25,000. In order for us to continue to serve the Ummah, we desperately need your support now. Without your support, unfortunately, we at Shariah Board of New York (SBNY) will be forced to discontinue these much needed services.
