Following the explosion at Rajaee Port in Bandar Abbas, many dock workers and truck drivers tragically lost their lives. In response, we came together to raise funds and offer support to the families of the victims.
Fortunately, the same team that previously delivered housing units on our behalf to earthquake victims in Khoy kindly agreed to travel to Bandar Abbas. With the help of a local insurance representative, they obtained a list of names and contact numbers of several affected families.
As in previous years, we decided to prepare and donate New Year food packages and traditional sweets for underprivileged children and their families.
To support this cause, we organized a festival called Valentine, where we rented out vendor tables and dedicated all proceeds to benefit the children.
You can see the process and highlights of this initiative through the photo gallery below.

Mehrgan Festival was launched with the aim of financing the expenses of Avand School in Sistan. This money was provided by the sponsors before the start of the program, and on the second day of the festival, the film of the school and the students, as well as the distribution of stationery among the children of the schools that we made earlier, was shown to the audience.
A campaign to help a 19-year-old woman who was the mother of 8-month-old twins. This woman is suffering from colon cancer, which requires surgery, chemotherapy, and a period of treatment. Since her husband is visually impaired, the family needed her to work financially to make ends meet.
This year, our school named "Avand" was built in the village of Maidan (Anark) of "Bam Pusht" district of "Sirkan" city.
The construction of this school building started in May, and with the festival of Mehregan, the money for the construction of the school was completed. This school is the sixth school that the members of this group build together. This school has already been established and children are studying there.
This campaign was organized to help a woman newly arrived in Canada. She sent us a list of supplies she needed. We were able to provide that list.
These supplies were donated by these kind people:

Mahsa is a 24-year-old girl with cancer who has never had a mammogram due to her youth. Unfortunately, the cancer has spread to nearby tissues. Mehsa can no longer work since 4 months ago. she already lost his father in the Kermanshah earthquake and lost his job as a shop salesman due to illness.
The next patient is an 11-year-old girl with brain cancer. Sarina lives with her father. Her father is a worker whose salary would not be enough for his daughter's treatment if he worked, but currently, he is the sole head of the family and cannot work and has faced many problems.
Kourosh is a young man whom we helped treat his cancer a year or two ago. Unfortunately, his cancer returned and spread to his stomach. He had to have surgery. We helped together again and $2,410 was raised. Cyrus returned to the hospital for treatment and we hope he can beat the cancer.
323 children live in Kent village of Sistan city. They have a school that currently has 4 classes. This number does not correspond to the number of students. So we decided to build another school next to this school. In this situation, these two schools can respond to this number of students in two shifts, morning and afternoon.
This school was built with the efforts of the members of the People's Aid Fund, whose names you can see in the fund section. The photos show you the story of the construction of the school and the students.
