LOMBARD, Ill. (April 16, 2021) The Islamic Medical Association of North America (IMANA) is providing grant funding to three halal restaurants across the country in an effort to offer affordable faith-friendly meals to customers throughout the holy month of Ramadan.

The grants are developed to support small businesses in an industry that has been hard hit during the pandemic. This is the second Ramadan to take place during the coronavirus pandemic.

Through the grants, each restaurant will receive $1,000—money that will be utilized as special discounts for customers each day until the grant funds are expended. Each individual restaurant will determine the exact dates that the discounts will be offered.

As part of the program, customers who utilize the discount will be made aware of IMANA’s role in the program and will also receive information about IMANA’s initiatives domestically and throughout the world.

This is the first year that IMANA is awarding grants to restaurants, a program created in response to the pandemic.
