Since 1992, Jabalu-Nur Foundation has sponsored a Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) throughout Long Island and the boroughs of New York City. SFSP is a federal program designed to provide complimentary nutritious meals (Breakfast, Lunch, and Snack) to children in low–income neighborhoods during the months schools are not in session. Our meals are prepared with Halal meats, fresh produce, and the finest ingredients. Additional services include; On-the-Job Training, Youth Enrichment, Youth Development Programs, and Summer Camps. All individuals that met the eligibility requirements are served without discrimination. Provisions were made to accommodate the physically challenged, language difference, hearing, and the vision impaired.
Jabalu-Nur Foundation Inc. has over 30 years of experience helping to increase stable family life through its Nutritional Food Service Program by providing complimentary meals to assist with eradicating hunger, provide housing referral and technical support to lessen the burden of homelessness, on the job training and job referrals to help lower the unemployment rate, Recreation and social outlets for families and children to promote joy. We have strategic partnerships with affiliated entities ranging from Federal, State, and Local Government as well as Private Business and Religious Institutions. These strategic partnerships afforded us the ability to design solution-based programs that promotes stability through optimism towards setting and achieving realistic goals for self-improvement.
Since moving to Texas in 2012, our point of service has slightly changed based on the need of the communities around us. We no longer operate through SFSP and have been able to provide meals for the less fortunate through community donors. Since Covid 19, we noticed the extreme need for housing and emergency support for families and individuals. We developed working relationships with homeowners and hotels in order to provide emergency housing for those who found themselves homeless due to unforeseen circumstances and the exuberantly high rents. We now manage two homes (sacred spaces) that operate as shared living spaces. We have provided programs and classes at these spaces to help improve the skills and lives of the living mates.
The emergency support provided by Jabalu-Nur includes emergency rent, food, utility, and medical bill assistance. These cases are all fulfilled through the generous donors, as we are not government funded.
