Muslims Care is a new annual campaign designed to encourage our community to reach out to their neighbors and make a positive contribution to our society at large.
Each month from June through August will have a designated theme:

1. VOLUNTEER: If you are an individual looking for volunteer opportunities, click on the links on the right to see what activities are taking place in your area, or if you are affiliated with a mosque or an Islamic school, you can work in conjunction with your local CAIR chapter to sponsor outreach efforts.
2. FORM A VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE: If there is no CAIR chapter near you or you are an individual who would like to promote volunteerism within your community, you can form your own volunteer committee. See below for a step-by-step guide on how to form a volunteer committee in your local area.
3. REGISTER YOUR ACTIVITIES: Whether as an individual or a representative of an organization, you should register any volunteer efforts that you know of or are participating in as part of the national "Muslims Care" campaign.
4. PUBLICIZE VOLUNTEER EFFORTS: Publicize the "Muslims Care" campaign in your local community and encourage fellow community members to participate in volunteer efforts.
5. DONATE: If you cannot participate in any volunteer efforts, donate to a cause of your choice.
