Muslims chip in Article by February 16, 2021 Roughly 1,000 needy families across Barbados are to benefit from food hampers from the local Muslim community. On Monday, a team from the Jumma Mosque in Kensington New Road, St Michael put together more than 400 packages to distribute, which they said would be shared “before weekend”. President of the Jumma Mosque Abdul Kothdiwala told Barbados TODAY that a decision was taken to do a hamper food drive after the country went on lockdown on February 3 because of the experience from the lockdown in 2020 when some families were desperate for basic food items after not being able to earn a living.
