MEAT COLLECTION

 

Eid ul Adha is a day that both marks the culmination of the annual Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca and commemorates the sacrifice of Ibrahim (Abraham). The festival is celebrated by sacrificing an animal and distributing a share of the meat to those in need. This type of meat is referred to as “Qurbani/Udhiya meat.” Rahima Foundation takes donated Qurbani meat and distributes it to families in the San Francisco Bay Area.

We have made a list of several local halal meat butchers with whom you may place an order for the meat of your choice. We have certain requirements and guidelines for you to follow. Please read below for that information.

 We will continue to collect meat throughout the year during our normal working hours: Monday thru Thursday from 10am to 2pm. 


Please note the following meat guidelines:

•       The meat must be cut in stew sizes and packaged in 3-4 lb bags  

•       The bags must be sealed well. (We recommend Ziploc type bags) 

•       Please request the butcher to freeze the meat packages before bringing them to Rahima Foundation

•       We will only accept meat that was slaughtered and/or packaged by a professional butcher at a Halal Meat Store. If you slaughtered yourself, then please have a Halal Meat Store package & freeze it for you   

Please note:

1. We do NOT accept tongue, head, or hoof (foot), of the animal.  

2. We do not collect money to do the Qurbani on your behalf
