Ramadan Requests from the Community Closet

Assalamu Alakum

I pray that everyone is in the best of health and iman. Enjoying and seeking the reward for this most wonderful time of the year. The Community Closet is still in operation after several years allhumdulillah. We are seeking the usual donations this time of year as well as specific needs of people who are asking assistance inshallah.
Unfortunately we are having some problems getting donations for some of the
families. I pray you can help inshallah. with the cost of gas and food some of the families in the community are struggling just to feed their children. this is a very hard situation we are all in and inshallah if we can share some of the blessings we have received it will lighten the load inshallah. there are five inshallah that are seeking assistance right now but there are always new people who call or write mashaallah and need things as well so the list is ongoing inshallah .I will describe them all are in need of food, clothing and any financial help you may
be able to assist with inshallah.
but please remember to help with zakaat al fitr as well as zakaat for all the families inshaallah.

family 1 is an older sick sister with several health impairments .this sister is on disability and has a lot of medications to take . she could use help with diabetic foods and clothing inshaallah

family 2 is a husband and wife with four small children. they are in a struggle just to pay their rent every month and food and household items are in need. inshallah

family 3 is a husband and wife with 6 children a couple of the children are
disabled mashaallah and the mother is a bit ill mashaallah they are having trouble buying food and clothing. as well as some financial problems

family 4 mashaallah is a brother who has 6 children and very very limited resources to care for them inshaallah.any help you could give him would be of great benefit

family 5 is a sister and brother with three small children they are limited on food inshallah the brother is not working so if anyone in the Baltimore area knows of openings inshallah work would be great as well.

At-Tauba (The Repentance)

9:71 The Believers, men and women, are protectors one of another: they enjoin what is just, and forbid what is evil: they observe regular prayers, practice regular charity, and obey Allah and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His mercy: for Allah is Exalted in power, Wise.

At-Tauba (The Repentance)

9:75 Amongst them are men who made a covenant with Allah, that if He bestowed on them of His bounty, they would give (largely) in charity, and be truly amongst those who are righteous.
