CAIRO – The Michigan Muslim Community Council and Jewish Community Relations Council of Detroit come together to repair dilapidated facilities in one of Detroit’s public schools, Nolan Elementary and Middle School.

Around 150 Muslim and Jewish volunteers came together to help students by repairing their aging school.

The experience of volunteering together brought both communities together, shattering the perception that they cannot work together.

The video, shared by Huffington Post on Facebook, hit more than one million views.

It also drew many positive comments from followers of both faiths.

“That’s exactly what we need in this broken world. The problem is not the religions but it’s people.. We should coexist together and fight criminals and bigots,” Barak Tahir wrote in a comment on the video.

“I was there as a volunteer and helped coordinate the activity in the library,” Janice Klein Ungar wrote.

“I was impressed by the dedicated principal and teachers at Nolan as well as students that came in on a Sunday. The group of volunteers was outstanding and we were all working for a common cause. Our different backgrounds and religions didn’t matter,” she added.
