Iftar Drive #2 - 2009
Sallam Aleikum wa Rahmat Allah ou Barakatah
How are you all? I am sure fine and healthy, ya rab.
I am writing this post today to let everyone know about our short gossip meeting that we had at Oishi Sushi. Our one and only SPEED, Khanan, casanova, Formatted Soul and I met to go over how we would proceed with our second Iftar Drive. Our first one was last year this time. That is when I personally met SPEED, heero, Kenny, azilana and many other great QL members. It was an event to truly cherish and remember. So, now for the second drive, inshallah new great members will show up for the preparation, distribution and then a yummy Iftar hosted by me.
Minutes of Meeting:
Attendees: SPEED, Khanan, casanova, Formatted Soul, PITSTOP
Collection Date: 10th of September
Collection Time: 9 pm - 11 pm
Collection Location: Behind KFC Airport, QIB Parking Area
Packing Date: 11th of September
Packing Time: 9 pm - 11 pm
Packing Location: TBA
Distribution Date: TBA
Distribution Time: 5:45 pm
Distribution Location: Airport Traffic Signal
Based on our past experience, the best items to buy are as follows:
Masafi water cups 45 x 125 ml = QR18
Maamoul - Date filled cookies (box of 12) = QR9 - QR11
Wet tissues (singles)
Small packed dates (not more than 5 per pack) - if possible
Zipper bags (box of 100)
Those are the most important items. I will attach pictures as much as I can of the items and things that we need. Prices i'll try to get as well. We are looking to prepare a minimum of 500 bags, so we will need all the help that we can get.
We are calling out to all the volunteers who are looking for ajir during this Holy month of Ramadan. Also, it would be a great chance to meet the great QLVG people, then dine with traditional Arabic food of Ramadan. Last year it was random and iftar wasn't planned. But this time, I already have it planned for success.
If you have suggestions, please share them.
Please call SPEED (7474567) if you want to contribute, or pm me.
I hope I get a good response to this drive.
Regards!!!
