Posted by Glittering_Ant7229@reddit | plano | View on Reddit | 10 comments
In the wake of the tragic attack on a mosque in San Diego, and in a world where Islamophobia continues to rise, we choose to respond with compassion. Join us this week as we serve our community through our food bank distribution.
The Islamic Association of Collin County (IACC) Food Bank hosts a weekly drive-thru food distribution every Saturday to support local families in need. Both drive-thru and walk-up options are available. No appointment necessary.
Location: IACC, 6401 Independence Pkwy, Plano, TX 75023
When: Saturdays - 7:30am - 10:30am
What’s available: Fresh produce, pantry staples, diapers and formula milk (when in stock) and more
Please spread the word to anyone who could use a little extra support. This is open to EVERYONE, regardless of background or faith.
The mosque also offers some medical/dental services for those without medical/dental insurance. Please make sure to check out the following website and make appointments accordingly:

Let’s take care of each other. ❤️

If I have never volunteered at IACC or attended services, do I need to pre-register/ email someone about my interest in helping?

No pre-registration or email needed at all. You’re welcome to just show up and help. No prior attendance or sign-up required. We’d love to have you. See you there! 🙂

I remember seeing a tiktok where a lady called churches and mosques around her for baby food and every single church rejected her and the only place where she got baby food was the mosque.
