As the dahlia celebrated its 100th year as the official flower of San Francisco, thousands of spectators flocked to the Annual Dahlia Show at the Golden Gate Park,
In the midst of this vibrant celebration, we gathered for an intimate GiveLight event, where the beauty of the dahlias mirrored the warmth of our sisterhood. Each petal, each hue, seemed to echo our shared joy and purpose.
A special thank you goes to our dedicated givelighter, Syeda Nasira, whose passion and commitment made this gathering possible for the second consecutive year. This event will be a beloved tradition for many years to come, Insha Allah.
Heres what Nasira wrote
“ I am incredibly grateful to our Almighty God for blessing us with such a memorable & beautiful day at our 2nd Dahlia delights. May He bless us with Guidance, Mercy & Tranquility! Ameen!”
We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed delicious homemade dishes, enriching our gathering with so much flavors and love. And to all who attended, thank you for being part of this beautiful tapestry of community and purpose. May we continue to do more inspiring event and spread light in this world.
