Dear Friends,
Nowruz is only a few days away. Nowruz, or "new day" in Persian, is an ancient festival that marks the beginning of spring and celebrates the rebirth of nature.
Nowruz is the hope and rebirth. As nature changes cloths, we also become inspired to become the change. Many see this change in form of giving. Time to help those who are less fortunate to experience kindness and generosity of others.
This year, Child Foundation offers two opportunities for helping children:
A Nowruz gift (eidi) for a child in need: Those who would like to participate in this effort, can give a needy child a complete outfit and a pair of shoes as their gift by donating $75.
Supporting the education of a child in need: Those who wish to participate in a gift with lasting impact can donate towards scholarships in honor of "Abbas Kiarostami," the renowned Iranian movie director. (please see additional information below)
At this joyful and auspicious occasion of the Nowruz, and on behalf of the entire team at Child Foundation, it is my honor to wish you and your family a very happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year.
May this Persian New Year of 1396 gives you the opportunity to realize your dreams, rediscover your strengths, muster your willpower and rejoice the simple pleasures that life would bring your way through helping others.
