Obviously, the above is not a report as such. It is a quick overview so that supporters have something. This overview
will be revised soon, insha'Allah.
We had a great response this year during Ramadan and received donations
to cover all these expenses.
Our bank balance is $757 with $2,000 in savings (we opened a savings account
to put funds in for a rainy day). Our goal is to have $10,000 in checking at all times and $50,000 in savings at all
times plus have our expenses paid in full and on time which is by the 10th of every month, insh'Allah. We need your
help. We need the other 18 or 19 masaajid and Islamic centers to contribute at their best monthly, we need all Islamic
organizations to give at least yearly, insh'Allah and we need at least 100 individuals in this city giving monthly.
At this time we have 48 consistent contributors from metro Atlanta, seven masaajid giving on a consistent basis. We
need everyone to come on board at this time. This issue affects us all.
As you see we
are running to close to the edge. As we fundraise to get ahead let's remember we need to raise $250,000 to run at
a level where can offer consistent service with dignity. When we meet this budget we can hire three or four full-time
staff with salaries to do things such as manage the shelter program, fundraise and manage the Advocacy and Education programs.
We can do this and we can do it in a very dignified manner. Everyone who supports this organization, please talk to
your neighbors, friends, co-workers, etc. and ask everyone to give. Ask them to give what they can and accept it with
a smile.
We want to acknowledge two communities coming on board: Masjid Al Farooq (for the first time
as a community) and the Atlanta Masjid for reinstating their commitment to us. As we learn to work together let us remember
that Allah has chosen the Ummah we must learn to live within it in peace, with dignity and striving for justice at all times.
We must begin with ourselves and then we can work toward justice in the community, insh'Allah.
All Imams/Amirs
who receive this, please ask your communities to give once a month, insh'Allah. All organization leaders who receive
this try to give as a group at least yearly, insh'Allah. All individuals try to give $10 per month, insh'Allah.
We have grown in size and are maturing as a group that is respected for what we do by others in our community and on the outside.
Now let's move up a notch and get the funding to deliver services with dignity, hire our own and others who can respect
us and build Islamic institutions that our children, grandchildren can receive when we are gone without the burden of starting
from the beginning. Let us leave a legacy of working diligently for peace in the home, community and world.
Let's raise $250,000 by April 2005 to show that Muslims can take care of their own. We can do this if we only
give it to Allah and truly want for others what we want for ourselves, insh'Allah.
This and other financial
information will be posted on our web site monthly, insh'Allah. Visit our site at www.baitulsalaam.net and send any information to our webmaster Na'im AbdurRafi at deencom@hotmail.com that you think we should post on our site, insh'Allah.
We always need money. Since we have not met our
budget please do not forget this. We always need money. We cannot pay any of the bills with clothes or other in-kind
donations. We appreciate and need other donations but we always need money. Always need money. Every penny, nickel
and dime counts and is used wisely.
If your community is not giving to this organization start today.
Just pass the collection box, basket, plate or whatever once a month and ask people to give. Allah will do the rest.
If you are not giving as an individual just write a check, send money in a card just do something. Any amount you give
will be blessed by Allah and appreciated by us. If your organization has not given in a while or has not given ask yourself
"why," if you feel you need to talk to us first just call or email haleem1@aol.com. We are always just a telephone call away, insh'Allah.
We get telephone calls daily. Our
sisters and their families need our assistance, insh'Allah.

NOTES
We
were very fortunate due to the huge donation by the North Fulton Islamic Center and others (in-kind donations) we did not
have to spend money for items that we usually have to use our donation money to purchase.
As you see
we end the year very low (too low). Let's keep in mind that our bank balance should never be below $1,000 for any
reason and that we should also have a minimum of $1,000 in Savings. We don't our savings as of today is $33.00.
Our bank balance with a deposit made today of $20 is $404.56 (too low).
Let's get those donations in
by talking to friends, family, etc. We can do this everyone.
I am writing two grant proposals this
weekend one to the Ludacris Foundation and one to a foundation headed by 50 Cent (the rapper).
I need for
someone to research the names and addresses of Muslim professional athletes so we can write them this month as well, insh'Allah.
Call (404) 366-6610 (404) 366-6610 or email me with the information, insh'Allah.

Minimum in savings $500 (not
there at this time)
Total in savings: $160 (very low)
Short of goal: -$346
We need $3,600 minimum to keep the doors open. This does not include salaries. To do this job right
we need a minimum of $250,000 per year for the shelter, education, advocacy and intervention.
We do more
than run a shelter. We run an entire awareness program. You must do this to be effective. Running a shelter
alone is not really solving the problem.
We are very close to securing our goal to meet the keep your
doors open budget. Now we need to move up and think let's pay salaries, let's operate a hotline, etc.
Suggestions:
**We need to raise more awareness to the issue of funding. We need everyone who has
pledged to give monthly or give in a manner that represents monthly giving, insh'Allah.
**We need the
rest of the masaajid that call us for help but do not give to give at least $100 per month.
To date
the following communities give on a consistent basis:
Masjid Al Hedaya
(Community Charity Fund)
Masjid Al Mu minun (through a weekly collection from the Believers)
Atlanta Masjid of Al
Islam
(Community Charity Fund)
Community Mosque
(Community Charity Fund)
Noor Islamic Center
(Community Charity Fund)
Masjid Al Farooq
(through Eid Al Fitra Zakat Fund)
This month we received a $700 donation from the Islamic Center of Islamic
Counseling (via businessmen who gave to us, them and ICERS).
If your community is not listed ask your Imam
why? Then help us raise funds in your community.

We took a short term loan of $500 to keep the bank account from being totally empty. Our budget is
$3,600 per month. We were blessed to receive two large donations of food, personal care items, detergent, etc.
So we did not have to buy anything.
Now we need to relocate to a property that is larger and that we can
buy in two years, insh'Allah. Your help is needed. We need to raise $1,600 by June 15 to secure the deal,
insh'Allah. Help us raise this money.
*Includes $100.00 for large March bill.
