Abdur Raheem Abdullah head organizer of the event later commented, "Masha Allah the day was super great, I have no words to describe how I felt. It would be a day that would remain in my heart forever. I hope to always  give back to the society that raised me. Not all are granted the chance to stay beside their parents, but they can be beside a brother or a sister. I urge the society to always help the less fortunate . "
