Niswa Spring Function
Pasadena , California
April 29, 2006
“We have
many things to be thankful for. For the season of spring, the beauty of God’s
creation. To be outdoors, the sky, the sun, the flowers, the warmth and the
general air of exhilaration,” Ms. Shamim Ibrahim strted at the Niswa
Spring Function on April 29, 2006. This year’s function was hosted at
Mr. and Mrs. Abdul Wahid’s residence in Pasadena, California.
Niswa is a non-profit charitable organization established in 1990 with the
aim to preserve and strengthen Muslim families, protect the rights of Muslim
children, aid needy individuals, and promote healthy and happy living. Niswa
undertakes multifarious tasks: it provides shelter to domestic violence victims
and help to those confronted with immigration problems. It fosters family
recruitment, offers financial aid, and helps families in crisis. It also extends
legal service referrals.
Speaking on the occasion, Ms. Shamim Ibrahim congratulated the guests, volunteers,
donors and the hosts who made their cozy home available for the occasion.
She also applauded Mrs. Khatija Kazi, Mrs. Amina Adaya, Mrs. Roman Wahid,
Mrs. Sara Ansari, and Mrs. Asra Zaman who previously hosted Niswa’s
Member Appreciation Day.
“Tents for earthquake victims in Pakistan, relief for tsunami in Thailand,
helping orphanages in Benda Aceh Indonesia and victims of Gujrat riots are
some of Niswa’s contributions,” Ms. Shamim Ibrahim revealed.
After the brief address, the guest enjoyed a delicious lunch followed by a
scarf fashion show where guest got to see different varieties and styles of
scarves especially suited for Muslim women. A jewelry show by Ms. Sana Abbasi
also greatly attracted the guests. Ms Abbasi teaches Fashion Design at CSUN.
Besides, Dr. Xu and his colleagues demonstrated their acupuncture skills while
Mr. Armand Arnazzi entertained the guests with music.
The event turned out to be highly enjoyable.
