Scene of Spring, Spirit of Nowruz
Dear Friends,
Spring 2017 and the arrival of the Persian New Year, Nowruz, are a few short weeks away. Nowruz is the time for being joyful and bringing joy to others. It is the time for giving a helping hand to those who are less fortunate. Child Foundation is honored to be the vehicle for your generosity and giving. We are proud to provide you with the opportunity to share love, kindness and blessings with those in need.
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 present, close to 9000 students in need receive monthly scholarship and support through Child Foundation through your donations. We are hopeful that through your generous support this number will surpass 10,000 by the end of the year.
We invite you to join us to touch the life of a child who was born into poverty. Your donation can be the difference between a dark hopeless future and the opportunity for a child to reach her/his potential. You can make the impossible possible in the life of one person.
