Join Us to Spread Joy and Give Back with MALEA – Friday, Nov 22
November 22 @ 10:30 am - 1:00 pm
The Rutgers University Police Department (RUPD) is teaming up with the Muslim American Law Enforcement Association (MALEA) to create care packages for families across New Jersey. These care packages will include non-perishable foods to support our communities during the holiday season and align with National Hunger and Homelessness Week. A special donation will also be made to PantryRUN for our RU-N families and local families in Newark, New Jersey.
📅 Date: Friday, November 22, 2024
⏰ Time: 10:30 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 Location: The Great Hall, 15 Washington Street, Newark, NJ
We need YOUR help to make this event a success! Last year, with the support of our amazing RU-N community, we packed over 600 bags (4,000 pounds of food) in just a few hours. Let’s do it again!
- Donate 15-30 minutes of your time during lunch hour or free periods to pack care packages.
- Drop by any time between
- Text 973-573-5448 if you plan on participating after 12pm to verify need.
Your time and effort will make a meaningful impact on families in need across our state. Together, let’s show what community engagement in action looks like!
Special thanks to MALEA President Lt. Kamil Warraich for his leadership and Goya for their generous support.
