Message from the President
Afshan Barshan
Happy Khordad Saal to my dear community members!
I am still reminiscing our New Year event from last month – such a great success! Thank you all attendees and volunteers (local and out of state or country), who made this celebration so memorable. Also, sincere thanks to all who participated in helping us raise funds for the Ava project through purchase of raffle tickets and food item sales. We raised over $1000 that night – Huge WIN! For those of you weren’t able to attend, there will be several upcoming fundraising events for you to
participate so keep an eye out for them. There was also a request for pledges that you should have received from our Ava project committee. We have already received pledge commitments from few members based on that request and we are very grateful for your support.
We have Arbor Day on September 8th which is a good event for volunteering and networking with our community members. Additionally, we have an Interfaith event on September 16th at our Darbe Mehr where we will have people from other faiths attending and it’s a great opportunity for us (all generations) to be a part of the bigger community and learn from them as well as educate them about us. I’ll be there and looking forward to seeing you all!
Feel free to reach out to me via email with questions/concerns/suggestions.
Take care and God Bless you all!

May we all be united in strength and righteousness
