Muslim Youth Walkathon to Fight Hunger

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Organization will host
its second annual walkathon to fight hunger. The College Park, Md. walkathon is part
of a series of walks happening across the country in Monroe Township, New
Jersey; Zion, Illinois; and Chino, California.  In total, these walks will draw over 1,000
American Muslim youth and guests nationwide. 
Last year, the organization raised over $90,000.  “We are dedicated to showing that Islam is a religion
of peace, not just through words, but through our actions,” said Dr. Bilal
Rana, president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Organization.
