Majidi Family

Meet the Majidi family! Mom and Dad recently arrived from Afghanistan with their nine children, ages 2 to 18 (including a set of twins!). Dad was a psychiatrist in Afghanistan and Mom stayed home with the kids. They are all starting to settle into their new community in Virginia, and Mom has already started taking English classes with her local social services organization. The family is especially in need of bedding so all of the kids can get a good night's sleep as the school season begins.
