They've made their long journey to the USA, now let's help them get a car of their own.


Help the Hariri Refugee Family Get A Car

The Hariri family has lost their home in Syria and left their loved ones behind,  but they have finally made their journey to the United States in hopes of finding a better and safer life. They've met the community, have a place to live, started working  and going to school, but now they need a 7 passenger van to get to work and school independently. There's no better feeling than being independent and getting your life together.

How You Can Help


The Charlotte Refugee Committee has already found a 7 -passenger van for the Hariri family , but they are $3,000 short of making the purchase final. We are reaching out to the community for generous donations to complete the purchase as soon as possible. In the meantime, Abdul Razaq's work boss is generously giving him a ride to and from work every day.

Their remarkable progress is an ongoing challenge and it hasn't been easy, but with your help, they will come closer to feeling more comfortable and confident in their new home.

About the Charlotte Refugee Resettlement Committee

Our committee members are made up of Charlotte residents who recognize the immediate need for action as the Syrian crisis evolves. Currently there are 3 refugee families living in Charlotte who are being assisted by local organizations.  We are doing our best to help them get established in homes, schools, and jobs, but we cannot do it without ongoing support and financial assistance. All donations are deeply appreciated. If you would like to learn more about our group, or join us, please email one of our members below.

"A charity is due for every joint in each person on every day the sun comes up: to act justly between two people is a charity; to help a man with his mount, lifting him onto it or hoisting up his belongings onto it, is a charity; a good word is a charity; and removing a harmful thing from the road is a charity.” (Al-Bukhari, Muslim)

Sending thanks and prayers your way!

Asalamu'alaykum,


I am writing you because you have generously donated your time and money to help buy a car for the Hariri refugee family from Syria. The resettlement committee in Charlotte is over joyed and inspired by your contribution. Our faces lit up when we saw your donation. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!

Because of your gesture we are now able to gift them a car that fits 7 people and they will now be able to make appointments and go to work on their own. May Allah increase you and raise your status in this life and in the hereafter and may He bring you relief as you have brought relief to the Hariri family.  We will be making special duas for you.  JazakAllahkhair!


Sincerely,

Hannah Tamimi

on behalf of the Charlotte Resettlement Committe
