The night will begin with a brief introduction to the Philly Iranians team, followed by the main event led by Moniro and Fatemeh. They will share excerpts from their work and discuss the role of literature in providing novel insights around resilience and compassion around the Iranian identity, particularly in today's challenging social climate.

Kian Pirfalak Memorial Fundraiser
Part of our mission is to raise awareness in support of the WLF movement, by creating legacies to honor the sacrifices made by Iranians in the name of democracy and human rights. The unfulfilled hopes and dreams of little Kian Pirfalak have touched us deeply, and we seek to uplift his memory and his name through this campaign.
With a goal of raising $10,000, and a commitment to allocate 100% of the proceeds to St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children in Philadelphia, join us in bridging the gap between our local concerns and the global fight for justice, offering a glimmer of hope to children in need, wherever they may be.
The hospital is one if the few children’s hospitals in the region that prioritizes Medicaid patients (82% of its services). They have persevered in their commitment to community healthcare, pioneering the path towards healthcare equity for children in Philadelphia.
