Neighbor2Neighbor Celebration of Nowruz (Afghan New Year)

On a cold, rainy March 26,2022, around 70 participants in the Neighbor2Neighbor (formerly called Homework Club)  program gathered at Peace Lutheran Church to celebrate Nowruz, the Afghan New Year. The group included approximately 12 Afghan families and many of the volunteers who have worked with them as tutors or mentors or have provided household furnishings, books, toys, children’s clothing, rides or donations.
