A group of Notre Dame students led by Cidra Chkhaydem held an interfaith charity iftar on Friday, March 11 to celebrate Ramadan and raise money and awareness for Caritas, which helps people around the globe living in extreme poverty. Kerrie Stone of Caritas Australia spoke about the impact the charity organisation has on the world stage. Imam Hysni Merja called the Adhan before the room broke there fast.
“Your actions today, your donations, and your presence here will be part of the change. You are making a difference, no matter how small it may seem. Every bit of help counts, and tonight, we are part of that bigger commitment to aid those in need,” said Cidra.
