Showing gratitude to our VIP

السلام عليكم  

(Peace be unto you)

It's amazing how fast this year has passed! We have so much to look back on and so much more to be grateful for. We couldn't have ended this year on such a positive note without the tireless efforts of our volunteers, the Very Incredible  People in our community. They include our beloved high school students, the aspiring college students, and the benevolent professionals in diverse fields. To each and every one of our volunteers, we send a heartfelt gratitude. You all are truly our VIP.

Thank you for helping us brainstorm the concepts and ideas.

Thank you for putting the concepts & ideas into activities.

Thank you for seeing those activities through.
Thank you for showing up ... always.

Thank you for your tireless efforts.

Shout outs to our after-school club volunteers who show up and help facilitate the club meetings. We salute our summer camp counselors. Hats off to our field day organizers. Many thanks to our partner organizations. And much gratitude to our wellness retreat planners. May you all be rewarded with good. You have all contributed a great deal to our success and The Aafiyah Project is a stronger organization because of you. We do not take for granted your commitment and dedication to the vision to "achieve health equity" and help build a legacy of health and wellness in our community.
