COPO President Mohammad Rizvi along with dozens of his volunteers distributed fresh vegetables, and fruits to the needy, and distributed turkey and halal chicken among 1000 people along with essential items.
A large number of white-clad and needy families from the Brooklyn and its suburbs were gathered here and respectfully received the required food and drink as gifts.
On this occasion, Mohammad Rizvi further said that it has become difficult for people with low income to bear the burden of increasing expenses.
