The Shahghasy Fund

Rahim and Nazifa Shahghasy left Afghanistan 20 years ago to escape violence and unrest, and to give their kids a better life. It is a cruel irony that they were cut down in a Brampton parking lot in a random attack, leaving their nearly grown kids to cope with an enormous financial burden, and no resources to speak of.

I am reminded, strongly, of the students that I meet in my college classroom, and my heart goes out to them. Perhaps yours will, too.
