'They decided to spend an already packed Ramadan sharing iftar with underprivileged Muslims in and around Baltimore City. But this wouldn't be a one time service – it would last the entire month, every iftar. . .

They have been delivering iftar everyday to shelters and inner city masajid for their Ramadan campaign. . .

MYMD had hosted fundraiser a few weeks earlier and raised $30,000 to deliver iftar to shelters and masajid in Baltimore and Baltimore City. . .

We want to make this into a hostel for new Muslims, where they can have a place to eat, sleep and learn,” . . .

A soup kitchen is in the works as is a reentry program for ex-prisoners in this kitchen. A library and Islamic Museum is also planned for this huge, historic building.'
