Support for Parween’s Daughters: A Future Beyond Tragedy

Hi, my name is Mursal, and I am a family friend of Parween Adel.

On November 17, 2024, our community was shaken by the devastating loss of Parween, a beloved mother, sister, and friend. Parween’s life was tragically taken by her husband, leaving behind her two beautiful 5-year-old twin daughters, who now face a future without their mother and father.

You can read more about this tragic incident in the news article here or watch the video below from CTV News.

Parween was a source of light and love for her children, and she worked tirelessly to provide them with a bright future despite the challenges she faced. Now, as we grieve her loss, we must also rally together to ensure her children are supported, nurtured, and given the opportunities Parween would have dreamed of for them.

This campaign is dedicated to raising funds for the twin girls’ current and future well-being and support. Every dollar donated will go directly to the children; the funds will be placed into a trust, with the twins as the sole beneficiaries. Responsible family members and community representatives will be the trustees who will manage the funds and ensure they are distributed to the children as follows.

We hope to raise $100,000:

Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this campaign within your friends and families. Together, we can show these young girls the strength of community, compassion, and love.

Let us come together to support Parween’s daughters and help them navigate this heartbreaking journey with hope and stability.

I also want to acknowledge that November is recognized as Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) Awareness Month, a time to reflect on the devastating impact of IPV and to stand together as a community to address it. IPV includes physical harm, emotional abuse, manipulation, financial control, and isolation, and it can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, or background.

Recognizing the warning signs of IPV is a critical step in prevention and intervention. If you or someone you know is experiencing IPV, please know that help is available. You are not alone. Reach out to trusted friends, family, or professionals for support. Confidential resources such as local shelters, hotlines, and counseling services can provide guidance and safety planning.

This month and always, let us commit to breaking the silence around IPV, supporting survivors, and fostering environments where everyone feels safe, respected, and valued. Together, we can make a difference.

With gratitude,

Mursal
