The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is honoring the nearly 3,000 people killed on Sept. 11, 2001 by saving the living as the 11-year anniversary of the terrorist attacks approaches.

The organization is hosting its second annual "Muslims for Life" a nationwide campaign to uphold the message that Islam values the sanctity of life by holding more than 150 blood drives at all its mosques and prayer centers, and in collaboration with other organizations. A drive will be held in Milpitas 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 8 at the community's mosque at 926 Evans Road.

The goal of the month-long campaign commencing Sept. 11 is to collect 11,000 units of blood.

To help the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community meet its goal, call (800) RED CROSS or go to redcrossblood.org (Sponsor Code: AMC) to schedule an appointment.
