Br. Erich Neupert
The SALAM Board of Trustees decided to create a committee that is
mandated to honor the efforts and dedication of volunteers who excel
at SALAM. On the first Friday of every month, an award will be given
to one volunteer who showed an impressive record of service to the
SALAM community.
Br. Erich Neupert, who is a geologist with the state of
California, will be the recipient of the first award for the Month
of March.
Br. Erich has been involved with the SALAM activities and
projects for the last two years. Since he joined the ranks of the
SALAM volunteer Task Force, he expressed much devotion and
dedication to the projects he took charge of. Br. Erich led a group
of volunteers to create the new SALAM website, and to the present
day works with volunteers to update and maintain it. Br. Erich was
also put in charge of creating a promotion video for SALAM, which
was played during the SALAM fundraising banquet in Ramadan of last
year.
SALAM raised over $500,000 that night.
Br. Erich was recently given the responsibility of launching the
SALAM Contemporary Issue Forum, which is an intellectual platform
that will present opposing views on different issues of relevance to
the present and future of the Muslim community in America, through a
series of discussions and debates.
SALAM would like to take this opportunity to thank Br. Erich and
to say Jazak Allahu Khayran for your dedicated service. May Allah
bless you and your family. |
