The Chaldean American Chamber of Commerce and Chaldean Community Foundation have engaged the Waad Murad Advocacy Fund in support of Thair Dado, who was shot and killed in the parking lot of his part-time job on Saturday, February 3, leaving behind a grieving widow and teenage son.

The Fund, working with the Detroit Police Department and Crimestoppers, will award $10,000 to the supplier of information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the culprits of the murder.

The Waad Murad Advocacy Fund was established in 2011 to aid the police in solving murders in the Chaldean business community. Since immigrating to the U.S., more than 100 Chaldean small business owners have been killed in their place of business in Detroit. The Fund aims to bring justice to the perpetrators and hopefully, some small semblance of relief to the victim’s families.
