How the Salaam Club is helping to support Brooklyn during coronavirus pandemic
Celebrating a proud heritage, the Salaam Club of New York, one of Brooklyn’s oldest civic groups, has been performing good works in Brooklyn and beyond for 75 years. Always quick to respond to the needs of the community, the Salaam Club recently helped initiate a GoFundMe campaign to raise much-needed funds during the coronavirus pandemic.
Spearheaded by club members John Abi Habib, Honorary Consul of Lebanon, in New Jersey and President of MSI & mCloudServ; and Dr. Pierre Hindy, founder of Gastroenterology Associates of Brooklyn, the club’s COVID Campaign was specifically formed to offer relief to our front-line heroes, including doctors, nurses, technicians, administrators, police officer and firefighters.
The campaign has helped raise over $60,000 for the cause thanks to private donations and the Salaam Club Foundation’s initial $25,000 contribution.
