Dear AFS Student,

Eid Mubarak!

Eid al-Fitr is a three-day celebration marking the end of the month of Ramadan. Muslims around the world spend this time visiting family, eating sweets and celebrating the end of their month long fast.

AFS-USA would like to invite you to a virtual Eid Celebration for both Muslim and non-Muslim AFSers. Whether or not you celebrate Eid, this will be an opportunity to connect with other AFSers. If your host family would like to join us in these celebrations, we welcome you to share your screen with them.

When: May 26, 2020 11:00 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Theme: New beginnings!  Come prepared to show or tell us something (photo, item, idea) that represents a new beginning for you.

Wear your Eid outfit! This is a time for us to celebrate and share our culture!

Shukran (thank you)! We look forward to having you join us.
