The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has launched "Muslims Care", an initiative "designed to promote volunteerism in the American Muslim community." The program "offers Muslims the resources and information they need to help improve the communities in which they live."

According to Rabiah Ahmed, CAIR's Communications Coordinator , "We believe this important effort will not only help those served by the volunteers, but will demonstrate in a concrete manner that American Muslims care about and want to improve their local communities."

A press release on the initiative is available here.
