Canada: Muslim meat donation helps soup kitchen

A New Brunswick soup kitchen will be able to serve hundreds of meals with fresh meat thanks to a donation from the local Muslim community following a religious celebration.

The Fredericton Community Kitchen received more than 350 pounds of ground beef and stew beef from the Pak-Canada Association of New Brunswick.

The meat was prepared in a special ceremony as part of a three-day celebration called the Festival of Sacrifice, which is based on the Old Testament story of Abraham.
