ISCC 14th Annual Nowruz Bazaar in Review:
ISCC’s 14th annual Nowruz Bazaar was a tremendous success. It took place over 17 days at our office location in Irvine. An overwhelming number of Shoppers joined us over the two weeks from most of Southern California. At this bazaar like previous years attendees could purchase, Haftseen Items, homemade Torshi, Moraba, Shirin, Premade Haftseens and decorative items. Numerous items were restocked several times due to selling out.
On Saturday and Sunday March 12th and 13th we expanded the shopping to a festival for children and adults, with live Music, Haji Firouz, children’s activities, food trucks and much more. Although up until few months prior to Nowruz we were not certain of the Covid situation we had made every effort to create a Covid friendly environment and continue our tradition of bring this Charitable, cultural event to our community and Southern California.
We are proud to announce through generosity of our supporters at this Bazaar we have raised treatment cost of over 70 Mahak Children.
On behalf of children of MAHAK and volunteers of ISCC, we thank the community for taking part in this year’s bazaar. Your support has allowed us to bring Nowruz to your homes and deliver the Beacon of HOPE for children with cancer and their families.
