Texas Muslim Women's Foundation
Shownotes:
If you don’t know Mona Kafeel of Texas Muslim Women’s Foundation, you have to hear this one. Her wisdom and insight regarding women’s safety and empowerment, allyship, and raising Muslim men plucks our heartstrings, and it’ll do yours too.
Why do we continue to fight domestic violence as Muslims? If we are following our religion correctly, there shouldn’t even BE a fight! What TMWF provides to Dallas metro Muslims, and how it’s grown with Mona is a model for all community resources, especially those tackling DV.
As a recipient of AMWGC’s grant last year, TMWF is above and beyond deserving of support and we hope y’all lend it. Check the Shownotes for links to donate ASAP and share this with a momsister at 6pm EST tonight.
