A new initiative entitled 'Jalsa Cares' has been launched aimed at serving the city of Harrisburg by cleaning the streets and giving back to the city.
A Muslim group that has held its annual convention in Harrisburg for more than a decade on Thursday launched “Jalsa Cares,” aimed at giving back to its host city with a series of service projects.to facilitate the service projects one day before the 73rd annual, the nation’s oldest Muslim convention, gets underway at the state Farm Show complex. Organizers say the convention is expected to draw 9,000 to 10,000 people to Harrisburg.
They worked hand-in-hand with Downtown Daily Bread, the Capital Area Coalition on Homelessness, and Harrisburg’s public work’s organization to ensure a day of servicing in a variety of ways. For the past 72 years, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community has held an annual “Jalsa Salana” in the United States to renew their commitment to peace and to advancing human rights around the world. This year’s convention will take place from Friday through Sunday at the Farm Show building.
