To ensure AMHP’s National Interfaith Anti-Bullying Summit* is a success, an AMHP donor has just upped the ante!
The donor will match any donations received — up to $10,000! Every gift, regardless of size, will produce an additional donation until we exhaust the gracious donor’s $10,000 in matches. Please send your zakat and tax-deductible donation now at the link here.
*The Summit will be held in Washington D.C and the primary objective is to share information, best practices and research about an increasingly serious problem facing our children and youth. According to a poll conducted in 2017 by the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding, “more than two in five (42%) Muslims with children in K-12 school reported bullying of their children because of their faith.” To AMHP’s knowledge, a national Anti-Bullying Interfaith Summit with this focus has yet to occur, and during this time of heightened fear and discrimination, such an event and the efforts that will ensue from it will be of critical importance.

National Interfaith Enrollment Campaign (NIEC)
This enrollment cycle, AMHP is working with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Center for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) to coordinate a “National Interfaith Enrollment Campaign” which will take place over Martin Luther King weekend, a weekend dedicated to community activism and service. The goal of this initiative is to partner with various faith-based and community organizations and encourage them to coordinate enrollment events in various religious institutions and community organizations over this weekend.
