Dear community,
With the outbreak of the coronavirus, members of the Houston Arab and Arab American community have banded together to organize coronavirus relief efforts for our community (please see below for list of involved organizations). We believe that through collective solidarity we can overcome the problems we face as individuals and as a people. We have circulated a form, found here:
https://forms.gle/NLSPfR66jtbcgeNv5, that seeks to identify the needs of the community so that we can organize to meet those needs.
As part of this effort, we are putting a call out for volunteers and donations. If you would like to volunteer or would like to donate financially or specific goods or services, we ask that you fill out this form. For those who own businesses and are currently hiring, we would also love to connect job-seekers to you. We can use all the help and support we can get. All donations are tax-exempt and we are able to provide a letter that represents tax-exempt status.
Please reach out to us at
hacma.tx@gmail.com for more information.
