It was a pleasure to attend the Nowruz Festival organized by our FCCFW Commissioner Zohreh Rezazadeh. The UNESCO BMW office was elegantly decorated with colorful displays of eclectic art and handicrafts reflecting Persian culture, including books written by Zohreh!

Great volunteer opportunity! The Literacy Council is a great help to Family Partnership and the entire Frederick community.
