Project Title: Islamic Center of Detroit Food Security Program
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
On behalf of the Islamic Center of Detroit (ICD), I am respectfully requesting $10,000 in grant funding from the Hermanowski Foundation to purchase food for our weekly food pantry that serves low and no-income citizens living in the Brooks, Fiskhorn, Warrendale, and Cody Rouge neighborhoods of Detroit, MI. This program provides food security for the impoverished, vulnerable, homeless, and disabled citizens residing in our service area. With a poverty rate of 39%, and an unemployment rate of 10%, the area served by ICD (zip code 48228) is one of the most impoverished in the nation. (Niche 2022) <\/p>\n
The mission of the Islamic Center of Detroit (ICD) is to serve the most vulnerable people within Metropolitan Detroit through the Muslim faith, Islamic principles, and a fundamental belief in assisting others. In following with this mission, ICD has served over 2,500 individuals (or 500 families of 5) with food from our food pantry each week, free of charge, since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. Although we have been able to meet the demand for food security in school children and their families, we have discovered a growing need amongst the unemployed, disabled, and senior populations. In fact, requests for assistance from these citizens have increased three-fold amongst our constituency. We know that expanding this program to add more disabled, homebound, and senior aged citizens will be successful because we currently have the capacity to serve over 135,000 meals per week to school age children (under 18) in metro Detroit alone.
\nSpecifically, through the ICD Food Security Program, we will expand the existing food pantry program to serve 100 unique citizens each week in metro Detroit by providing them with food pantry items, including: canned goods, vegetables, fruits, bread, beans, and pasta. This means that and additional 3,000 unique citizens that are isolated at home, in assisted living, homeless shelters, or on the street, will be served monthly; thus, meeting this ever-expanding food insecurity need. <\/p>\n
Total Project Budget: 1500000<\/p>\n
