Help Father Recover After Brutal Islamophobic Assault at Work in Markham

Our dad was brutally attacked at work — we're raising funds for his surgery, recovery, and our family's survival.

On September 28th, our beloved father — a hardworking Muslim concierge worker at a hotel in Markham — was viciously attacked by a customer wearing brass knuckles while simply doing his job.

He suffered severe, life-changing injuries and is now in recovery. There are clear signs that this may have been a hate-motivated crime, though the investigation is still ongoing.

Our father has always been kind, gentle, and dedicated to supporting our family. Now, he’s unable to work and faces a long and painful road to healing.

We’re raising funds to help with medical treatment, recovery costs, and lost income as we support him through this difficult time.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love and prayers. Your support means more than we can express and will help our family get through this unimaginable moment.

Please donate and share to help our father recover and stand against hate.

— The Family of Arshad
