Do you have a coat, gloves, scarves, that you don’t need anymore? Then donate them!

Winter is almost here and there are people who could use a nice warm coat, hats, gloves and/or blankets.

There will be a box at GCLEA for you to drop off your
gently used coat/hat/scarps/gloves/blankets, from 11/01/15 to 11/30/15

Please donate clean, reusable OR new items only. Please do not use this as an opportunity to get of items you wouldn't even wear yourself.

Your items will go to the homeless shelter in Camden and if we get an overwhelming response, we will also share in the donation bin for Narenj Tree (who ship items to Syria).

For more information, please contact Shanaz Persaud at girlsyouthcommittee@gclea.org

Hadith 37: Reward for Doing a Good Deed:
On the authority of ibn Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with both of them): On the authority of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s blessing and peace be upon him) from among the sayings that he related from His Lord (glorified and exalted be He) is that He said, “Verily, Allah recorded the good deeds and the evil deeds. Then He clarified how [that recording should occur:] whoever decided to do a good deed but he did not do it, Allah records it with Him as a complete good deed. And if he decided to do it and actually did it, Allah records it with Him as ten good deeds up to seven hundred up to many times over. If he decided to do an evil deed but he did not do it, Allah records it with Him as one complete good deed. If he decided to do it and he actually did it, Allah records it as one evil deed.” (Recorded by al-Bukhari and Muslim)

“And if he decided to do it and actually did it, Allah records it with Him as ten good deeds up to seven hundred up to many times over.”

SubhanAllah, such is the mercy of Allah that when we actually do a good deed, He not only rewards us for that, but He increases our reward at least ten times! Allah tells us in the Qur’an:

“Whoever brings a good deed shall have ten times the like thereof” (Surah al-Anaam:160) External Event Url
