But, sometimes it stays for so long that you want it to leave cause it left such a big mess at your home.

Re: The DC/VA/MD Area Thread
As salaamu alaikum,
Community
As per the flyer below, Muslimat Al-Nisaa Health Clinic & Shelter Services will be providing free health screenings for one of the most vulnerable populations within our community - our elderly. These individuals either exist in various states of homelessness, have no health care, or have no access to health services.
As part of Muslimat Al-Nisaa's Community Outreach programs, Inshallah we will be providing the services listed below within the Forest Park Senior Citizen Center in Baltimore, Maryland. Any health care professionals, or those wanting to help, are encouraged to attend.
Donations of supplies, diabetic testing equipment, flu vaccines (for those who can't afford the $15.00) or monies to contribute to the cost of this project is greatly needed. Shukran!

Muslimat Al-Nisaa Wholistic Health, Education and Social Services Center provides comprehensive services to respond to the healthcare, educational and housing needs of the homeless women in the Muslim community; not as a one organizational endeavor, but as a community wide effort, Inshallah, to assist any sister in need, regardless of race or Islamic community affiliation.
