2019 Ramadan
"Seeking Justice Together"
“O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness.” (5:8)
Welcome to the Michigan Roundtable for Diversity and Inclusion 2019 Ramadan Appeal homepage.
This is the fifth consecutive Ramadan Appeal, begun by our former board chair and dear colleague, Ghalib Begg.
During the 78 years, the Roundtable has been standing against harm to our neighbors because of their religion, race or other identities, we have enjoyed a long history with the Muslim community.
15th Annual Backpack Giveaway Celebration
In partnership with the Mama Akua Community House, we hosted the 15th annual backpack giveaway in August 2021. While we traditionally host a neighborhood festival as part of the giveaway, Covid-19 inspired us to take a different approach this year by hosting 2 outdoor youth days and offering both curbside pick up and delivery of over 1000 bookbags.
Please stay tuned for plans on next year’s backpack giveaway!
