Following the announcement from earlier this week, we have been informed that IslamCrunch has been hand-picked to be selected on a new blog aggregator site, Trakkrz. Here is the email we received:

Your blog – IslamCrunch – has been honored with a selection to the
world’s largest hand-picked blog site on the web, trakkrz.com, for the
topic of Muslim.

To be selected by trakkrz.com:

* you have a consistent, regular stream of articles

* you write primarily about the topic for which we’ve chosen you

* you write original, relevant articles that provide a unique view -
you are not a news aggregator, not an automated blog scraping website

as one of the top blogs we’ve selected.

Assalamu Alaikum, I pray this reaches you all in the best of health. As many of you may know IMAN’s programming in the areas of Direct Services, Social Justice Organizing and Arts and Culture have increased and strengthened exponentially over the last several years. Among the things IMAN is doing to financially sustain this level of programming is aggressively pursuing foundation support and grant opportunities.  Our talented and extraordinarily committed staff is becoming more and more proficient in this area.

One shining example of all this can be seen through the work and commitment of Asad Jafri, IMAN’s Arts and Culture Director. Asad just recently wrote and submitted a proposal to the Case Foundation for youth programming entitled “Leaders of the New School.” The proposal advanced to the final round by being among only 20 projects selected from a field of 5,000. For this IMAN secured $10,000 to support the project.

Now we have another opportunity to secure an additional $25,000 if we can become one of the four final proposals selected through an online voting process that ends tomorrow, Tuesday April 22nd, at 11:59pm.

It’s simple; whoever gets the most online votes wins. Take two minutes to click on the link below to select the “Leaders of the New School” project along with three other projects of your choice and submit your selection along with an email address. One vote per email address.  Please make sure your vote counts by clicking the link in the confirmation e-mail that will be sent to you.

Please pass this along to your respective lists, the support is greatly appreciated.
