Fund for Afghan Cartoonist's Family
:: Posted by Bryan @ 1/22/2007 03:11:00 AM The Hamilton Spectator provides a pair of articles following up on the death last week of Said Rahimi, the Afghan cartoonist who was struck by a train while delivering pizzas in Hamilton. There was a huge turnout of 500 people for a memorial service at Rahimi's mosque yesterday and a fundraising effort has been started for his wife and six children. According to the Spectator, a Canada Trust bank account has been set up and donations can be deposited directly to Hamilton's Barton Street East TD Canada Trust account number 1026339535. Donations can also be made to the Ibrahim Jame Mosque, 678 King St. E. in Hamilton.Labels: charities, news, people, political cartooning
