Big Wishes Coming True by Mini Donation Boxes A Different Celebration at MAHAK

The 73rd MAHAK’s charity bazaar along with the 18th ‘breaking donation boxes’ ceremony were held on September, 29-30 with the cooperation of more than 300 volunteers serving 4200 visitors and benefactors.

The ‘breaking donation boxes’ ceremony during MAHAK bazaars is one of the most significant events which has been organized for 18 consecutive years with our benefactors and volunteers’ support and cooperation under the theme of circus. The bazaar was paved with clown design tiles and decorated with clown balloons and cartoon characters. Along with the usual side events of MAHAK’s bazaars such as charity auctions, this gathering was followed by the ceremony of renaming MAHAK’s ‘breaking donation boxes’ event to ‘Big Wishes Coming True by Mini Donation Boxes’ which was chosen by our benefactors through public vote.

The unveiling ceremony of this new name was launched with the presence of MAHAK remitted child, Hamed Haddadi, a famous basketball player, Alireza Haghighi, the well-known goalkeeper of the Iranian national football team and many other artists and supporters.

The photography booth welcomed the visitors with circus photo backdrop to record their memory of being at MAHAK’s charity bazaar with their family and friends. Like the previous bazaars, there were various booths giving services to the visitors which all were set up to dedicate the generated funds to support children with cancer and their families. A lot of children with donation boxes in their hands visited bazaar and received a new box after handing over the old ones to MAHAK while wishing health and happiness for children with cancer.

An integral part of MAHAK’s bazaars is the smiley balloon of wishes. The visitors wrote their beautiful wishes for cancer-stricken children on it and released it to the sky hoping for a day when all the wishes will come true by MAHAK supporters’ efforts and kindness.

The whole revenue generated by 73rd bazaar and 18th breaking donation boxes, more than 6,500,748,214 IRR, will be spent on medication and treatment of children with cancer as usual of every bazaar holding at MAHAK.

MAHAK fully appreciates all the kindness and support that benevolent members and volunteers selflessly provide helping children remain children, giving them hope and conviction, preventing them from becoming reclusive, and thus assisting them in maximizing their chances for recovery and returning to normal life afterwards.
