The Zoroastrian Society of Ontario and it’s Help Hands Committee is reaching out to our entire community to join hands together and support Zarina and her family in these difficult times. Please donate online by visiting the ZSO website at https://zso.org/donate and designate your donation to Zarina.

Zarina Bharucha and her family are in a very difficult situation. She is currently unemployed and facing some financial challenges to pay for the funeral costs of her father Sammy Pheroz Bharucha who passed away on Feb 2^nd, 2023.

The members of Our ZSO Helping hands committee have been working hard in supporting her during these difficult times and have connected Zarina with Jarrett Kane funeral home for next steps and options available for the funeral etc. We’re fortunate to have priests performing the prayers and rituals at no cost, however we all know there are many other expenses associated in performing the last rites. The funeral will take place by Sunday which will not allow for enough time for the family to receive any Government funding, if applicable.

Together we stand strong!

A big thank you to our custodian Farrokh Farhadian who has served our community for the past seven years.

His last day with the ZSO as a custodian will be January 31, 2023.

When you get the opportunity please share your appreciation to him personally and as a board we have been so grateful for him.

Wishing you well and tandorosti Farrokh Jan.

On behalf of the ZSO board and our community you will be missed.
