Biography
Zehra Quadri came to the United States from India in 1987 with the hope for a new life for herself and her family. Responding to the lack of services for families and single mothers in her community, Zehra created ZAM’s Hope Community Resource Center in 2000 to provide programs such as after school activities for children, emergency food distribution, nutrition education, senior citizen services, job referrals and employment skill development and domestic abuse response. ZAM’s Hope has always been available to all residents without regard for religion, gender, ethnicity, disability, income or sexual orientation.
