TEHRAN, (BCI) - According to the Public Relations Department of BCI, the charity participated in the 25th International Qur'an Exhibition in the group of NGO (by #I am dandelion) and the closing ceremony with numerous achievements was held on Friday (June 16th).

Widespread welcome of the visitors to this exhibition resulted in a praise from the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance. The charity was one of the most prominent pavilions in exhibitions of Qur'an, and more than 4,000 kids recorded their works on this pavilion.

Each child could have sent a kind message to the children who are deprived of having father.

The purpose of this work was to attract the attention of people, especially children, to the orphans and helping the needy. Each child has received a gift from the BCI after drawing their paintings.

More than 4,000 children aged five to fifteen who visited the pavilion will be members of the club named  "Messengers of Kindness" and will promote the culture of philanthropy in the community.

Top paintings will be selected and published among the works and will be given awards. Some of these works will also be sent to the children supported by BCI.
