To my Dearest Friends and Supporters; Please read for exciting news personally and professionally for me and for Nazanin Fatehi too. I am very happy to announce that The Nazanin Foundation has officially been launched! I created this foundation as a platform to assist me in funding projects that will aid and empower women and children who are in desperate need of our assistance. I have more fantastic news! My book Tale of Two Nazanins which I pledged 50% of my profits has now been distributed in several countries in different languages. The Nazanin Foundation board of directors will help me direct the funds to worthwhile initiatives. Even More Great News! Comics Without Borders is producing a charity comedy show with an A list of comedians who are all donating their time to benefit the Foundation. Please help us by purchasing tickets to the fantastic event and enjoy a night of laughter that will benefit women and children who need your help. Please accept this invitation to join me this coming week, SATURDAY, SEPT 20TH at the Toronto, Saint Lawrence Theatre. VIP tickets are only $75.00 which include joining me for a VIP reception prior to the show. Regular tickets are $35 / $50. Remember, we need your help, every seat filled will go a long way to assisting us in our efforts. If you cant make it to the show and would like to help, you can purchase tickets from a single up to a block of seats, and we will be happy to donate your gift of tickets to local womens shelters or other deserving individuals who might not have an opportunity such as this. Please go to this link and support us on this important night: stlc/event/comics-without-borders-2/ Nazanin Fatehi I am happy to report that the teenage girl who was the subject of my book Tale of Two Nazanins and the story that started all of my human rights efforts. She was on death row for defending herself when a group of men attempted to rape her and her young niece in Iran. Many of you helped me during the SAVE NAZANIN FATEHI campaign. This girl has grown into a wonderful young woman and has since married of her own free will to a man who she is in love with. They are expecting their first child next month. This is an unbelievable successful ending to a very tough personal story for her and her entire family. Personal News Update Peter and I are extremely proud of our son Kian who will be 1 1/2 years old next month. Even though he is still a baby he has a great sense of humour and makes us laugh everyday. Kian is truly the best gift God ever gave us, and for this Peter and I feel truly blessed. Peter and I thank you all for your well wishes since the birth of Kian and hopefully I can meet each and everyone of you in the coming events working together to make life better for the women and children in need. Best wishes, Nazanin Afshin-Jam MacKay
