More than 100 residents joined together in a solidarity event for immigrants Wednesday night in Mohegan Lake.

The rally, held at the Hudson Valley Islamic Community Center, was organized by the Coalition of Concerned Clergy.

Leaders of 22 churches, synagogues and mosques across northern Westchester and Putnam signed a "Declaration of Concern," expressing their support for people in the community of Muslim faith and for any immigrants who have been experiencing fear and concern.

Organizers Steve Axinn says his own ancestors were immigrants to the United States and were able to flourish. He says he wants that for young people who call the Hudson Valley their home.

"That gift which I am living representative of today is the gift that I want to make sure that Muslim children have, Hispanic children have and all children who live in this area have," he says.

A moment of silence was also held for those who lost their lives to terrorism in Manchester, England.
