For over eight years, Turning Point for Women and Families has been addressing the needs of New York City’s Muslim women and families at the grassroots level. Your generous support can help us keep it that way.
Like other non-profit organizations, Turning Point has also been severely impacted by the financial crisis and funding cuts. We are now at a critical juncture where without your support it would be extremely difficult for us to continue providing crucial services to the Muslim community.
Turning Point offers free and confidential services in a culturally and religiously sensitive environment. It takes on domestic violence and child safety and related issues involving immigration, poverty and the aftermath of 9/11. I am proud to say that no other organization in NYC provides these tailored services to a largely under-served and marginalized community of Muslim women and families in crisis.
In order to sustain itself, Turning Point has launched an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign. I urge you to please make a contribution today. No amount is too small and whatever you can contribute will help us keep our doors open. Our community desperately needs your assistance – please step up!
Here is how you can help:
1. Please contribute to our crowdfunding campaign now or as soon as you can. This will significantly help move our campaign along. Here’s the link: http://www.indiegogo.com/tpnyqueens
2. Please tell your friends, family, networks, colleagues and listserves about our Indiegogo campaign and encourage them to contribute. Our crowdfunding campaign will only be successful if it is widely shared in a quick manner. The more people know about Turning Point’s Indiegogo campaign, the more likely we will be able to reach our goal!
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely
Robina Niaz
Founder and Executive Director
