Assalamu Alaikum
This is an announcement from Masjid Otsuka.

Thank you for your support in response to the call for assistance for the Afghan refugees and the poor in Pakistan. We were able to ship the relief supplies and donated items via the transport container.

However, the people of Afghanistan continue to remain under difficult conditions.
There is a shortage of food and supplies and prices are going up. Particularly orphans who have lost their parents and women who have lost their spouses are facing dire conditions. The winter season is approaching and the cold will be severe. We would like to send more supplies before that, as soon as possible.
Therefore, we continue our call for relief items and donations.
As the situation on the ground is changing, we shall decide on which refugee camp to distribute the items once the items arrive on the ground.
Your generous contribution and assistance is requested.

Please send all relief supplies to the storage address below. To avoid water damages and mold, please put all supplies in a plastic bag before placing it in the cardboard box.
Please DO NOT send or bring your donations to Masjid Otsuka. Your understanding and cooperation are highly appreciated.
